The western canon will be decided on in a 100 years, when the political pendulum has long swinged back into conservative territory.
the meme novels by black people won't be valued in a 100 years with only a few minor exceptions (actual good novels)

The emphasis is shifting that's all.
Where once it was England, France and Russia that produced the great works of literature that endured for generations now it's Australia.
