I also remember all the furore about Enid Blyton's Noddy books and her inclusion of the golliwog in the stories. The removal of said books from some libraries.. She was accused of also being sexist??? I never noticed when I was reading them. It was ridiculous because she was born in a different age to the one that began to emerge in the 70s. Anyone of any sense would have allowed children to read them and then ask the child what they thought and address the issues that way.
