I thinkt he book awards can do whatever they like, and are within their rights. But it was the wrong decision. As far as I know Drew didnt hire any non-union writers, nor as she personally violated any of their asks... She is perfectly ok.

The bigger issue is the cancel culture, I know I will not give any attention to the book awards (As is my right) due to this decision.

Cancel culture is the public's way of letting the powerful and bigoted know what they think and prefer.

If you feel cancelled, try looking into why so many people don't approve of what you do/did.

You seem mistaken on what the term "Cancel Culture" means. A culture in which reasonable and occasional boycotts are employed is NOT cancel culture... thats just boycotting and its been around forever and its perfectly fine.

Cancel Culture is pointing out a culture where **frivolous** boycotting is central the the culture.

The distinction is important to having a productive conversation here.
