Another excellent article from the Pulitzer Prize winning Guardian. The author a black woman describes eloquently why she personally finds golliwogs offensive.

We were subjected to some shyte as kids in the 70’s but we still love em :lol: :lol: :wink:
You know when I was a kid a golly was just that a golly. Baa baa black sheep was a traditional nursery rhyme & one of our favourite stories at school was a book called Little Black Sambo …. god forbid.
Get real PC folk – He was a black boy called Sambo, There was no racist intent. The colour of a persons skin doesn’t matter to a child we’re all different.
I brought my two up with that view …. people are people all have feelings regardless of the colour of their skin.
Racism has been created by society … the innocence has been taken away from most things in life these days – huge deals made making racism an even bigger issue.
Kids are now singing Baa baa rainbow sheep ….. wtf is that all about. Hands up who has seen a rainbow sheep in a field anywhere.
No wonder kids are confused .. The innocence of childhood has been ruined by do-gooders making big deals of things.
Don’t get me wrong I know racism had become an issue but banning golliwog dolls, a well loved children’s story & a nursery rhyme because it causes offence …. to who exactly ?
The world has gone mad. I for one am glad to see the return of the golly. :)
