Dead Ass White Guys. Name for the canon of English literature which skews towards white male writers and is generally labelled as "Classics" in book stores, libraries and various online outlets.
Customer: Excuse me, but can you tell me why your Classics collection only includes a handful of women writers and, like, 3 writers who aren't white?
Bookstore employee: Oh, you mean, the DAWGs? Well the short answer is that almost-all male writers were prioritized for publication over female or non-white writers over the past 300 years. This is changing. But the "Classics" label is still sticking around. So...for the near future, at least, we're all stuck with the Dead Ass White Guys being the first take on "Classical Literature."
