Roald Dahl is the latest target of the wokey lefty youthy wokey stupid wokey evil wokey woke brigade! Or is he?
In this video I offer a nuanced view of the re-writing of Roald Dahl, a series of edits scandalised in the press and taken to dystopian extremes.
What is censorship? Is it ever ok to edit the works of a dead writer? What gives us the right to re-write? Watch to find out.
