Chinese textbooks slammed for being racist

China is ordering a nationwide review of school textbooks as pro-American illustrations cause an uproar

People are deeming the images as “ugly” and sexually suggestive. But the news is alarming some parents who fear the campaign is turning into a political witch hunt.

The drawings were found in a series of math textbooks, which Chinese primary schools are using for nearly a decade.

Some Chinese internet users believe the pictures of children are offensive and racist.

China’s President Xi Jinping is cracking down on control over the country’s youth in a bid to fend off western influence.

The President has banned foreign teaching materials. He says all learning resources should reflect the will of the CCP and the country.
