I’m just sickened that cheese thinks if you talk to a white guy in a pub they’re automatically British. Disgusting stereotyping there.

see that's a fair point too

if she's dressed like that, then why not ask where she's from

but

not "really" from, like you don't believe her

asked her where her style orginates from, compliment her look, say you'd like to know more about her origins

it's like saying "where you from?" "hackney" "well you're not really are you, look at you"

but she's 82

that's how it was back then

see Prince Phillip

see if Prince Phillip  was still Knocking about 

She could have Shouted Him over 

Phill help us out here 

Where you think This Ones From

Here you go - just an excerpt - have a read, see what you think, as personally I think this thread has proven her premise almost exactly. Theres also an interview on the website which discusses the topic more fully.

But, as I say, up to you - I'm not here to change your mind, just offering a different perspective.

No (and its a woman) read it further - its about societal structual racism not that people are just outwardly racist. That is a much more complex issue and that's what isn't always visible.

It's sort of about intersectionality and race, and how this corresponds to lived experiences.

No doubt the authors feelings are valid but, if you swapped the word white for black in that excerpt you would say it’s a racist sweeping statement? 
 

Maybe I don’t understand, genuinely

Well, you couldn't swap the words - that's the whole point.

Anyway, as I say I'm not here to change anyone's mind but just offer a different view from something that really got me thinking about the topic in ways I hadn't before - which again is the point of the book.

Right, I'm off to see Yard Act.

You could, but even if you left them as they are, she’s saying she’s not speaking to white people as a whole, not just people like me who don’t “ get it” but that would include people like you, who obviously get it, but she wouldn’t speak to you about it because you’re white . 
 

honestly, not being smart, but saying I’m not speaking to someone about anything because of their skin colour is a racist statement? 
 

Or have I completely missed it, genuinely don’t get the premise even if I appreciate the point of her experiences as valid.

I read the first sentence. ‘Them and us’ I’ve paraphrased. How can you have racial cohesion when any colour talks like that?

Ill save my £8. Common sense costs nothing.

Would anything posted on here which was contrary to your current thoughts ever change your way of thinking?

So if I call a Scottish football supporter a knock-kneed, log-tossing, diabetic, ginger porridge wog across a football stadium, even if he is a knock-kneed, log-tossing, diabetic, ginger porridge wog, does that make me a racist cunt?

Because if we’re drawing a line, it’s important we draw it properly.

Does that apply to the term ‘Gammon’? Asking for a friend.

Some say that the use of gammon is racist. I don’t know if it’s ever been tested in law.
