Why did former president First Lady read those books to kids

Why did former president First Lady read those books to kidsBecause they are entertaining and popular. Dude has a museum after all. Just a dated racial stereotype illustration. No need for you to meltdown again.

So it is wrong now when white president not black got itNo, the illustration has been a dated racial stereotype for some time now. Has nothing to do with the president.
