It was great, until we got to the politically correct part of the show

God save us all from a liberal American.

While a great deal of the show was great, hearing the thoughts and opinions of scholars who have studied the Ingalls and Wilder families extensively, they lost me at the end.

Like all true liberals, let's not take the book and its contents at face value, using the context of the times to better understand the book and the woman. No, no, no! We have to have it parsed to death, declaring Laura Ingalls Wilder, and anyone who lived in that time horrible, racist person.

There are actually people who wish to sanitize the Little House books until there's nothing left but a couple paragraphs, to be sure. Why do people feel the need to remove all traces of the history of this country?

Instead of disparaging someone who brought a great deal of joy to a generation, awakening in children around the world a strong desire to read, how about we use the books as a teaching tool? How about discussions about how far we've come as a people?

When the documentary got to the point of people saying they wanted whole swaths of the book removed, they lost me. It's okay for "artists" to hang a picture of a cross sitting in a jar of urine and the world embraces the "artist." But let's allow a writer, who's been long dead, to be vilified for something she thought as a child and probably didn't believe as an adult.

God save us from a liberal American. They won't be happy until every single person in the world thinks exactly the same as everyone else.

I don't recommend this documentary. It really became a propaganda tool for progressives.

Needed to keep it focused

Needed to keep it focused. Easy to Monday morning QB. In 50 years - what will be rewritten of today's art, music and literature?

Your agenda is showing PBS

Evil, racist white people steal from and live in terror of being near Indians. This is the basis of "Little house on the prairie". Good grief.
