[/quote] Yes. It's time to end the monopoly blacks and browns have on outrage. We whites need to be permanently outraged as well. If the only color pen available is black, be outraged. If the highways are 100% with only a little token white or yellow line thrown in, be outraged. If the sky is black at night without enough token stars to even read by, queue the outrage. [/quote]
Original Message
A BOY of seven is facing accusations of racism after asking a fellow pupil if he was “brown because he was from Africa”.
Elliott Dearlove asked the question of the five-year-old boy at Griffin Primary School in Barham Road, east Hull.
The younger boy’s mother complained to the school, which launched an investigation.
Elliott’s mother, Hayley White, 29, says she received a phone call to say her son had been at the centre of a “racist incident”.
She was summoned to the school by her son’s teacher, where she was read the school’s zero-tolerance policy on racism.
Miss White, an NHS healthcare worker, said: “Elliott does not even know the meaning of the word racist.
