The past year has brought some significant conversations regarding racism in America, some of which have included the ways that pieces of popular culture unintentionally perpetuate racism or harmful stereotypes. One of the latest pieces of media to be at the center of that debate has been The Adventures of Ook and Gluk: Kung-Fu Cavemen from the Future, a graphic novel that serves as a spinoff of the Captain Underpants franchise. Over the weekend, it was confirmed that Scholastic would no longer be publishing or distributing the graphic novel, after concerns that it contains stereotypes that help “perpetuate passive racism” towards the Asian community.
