7-Year-Old Accused of Racism For Asking "Are You Brown Because You Are From Africa?"
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.

Ah the joys of social engineering. What will the children take from this? The black kid now knows that anytime he cries racism everyone in a position of power will come and grovel before him. The white kid learns to never question anything racial or the entire power structure turns on him. Everyone else learns the same lesson...

Yet another reason why homeschooling is a wonderful thing.

Re: 7-Year-Old Accused of Racism For Asking "Are You Brown Because You Are From Africa?"
My three year old daughter and I were in a pizza place and these two black men next to us kept using the "N" word back and forth with each other.

We had to get up and move because when my three year old comes out with the "N" word, then I am a racist, right?

I didn't even mention race to my children, but one day when we went to pick up my nephew from football practice, we were waiting in the car and I was reading and suddenly my kid says, "Mom, where are all of the peach people?"

When I looked up, all of the football players were coming out of the school and they were all black until my nephew came out. Kids notice color and are curious, that is all.

Anyone who has ever been around kids knows they ask questions. Lots of them. The kid should be commended for theorizing correctly. It's not racism, It's curiosity.

As a racist I can tell you, I would have asked "Are you brown because you live in the sewer," or something along those lines.

It's obvious to me, that the litlle "brown" boy's mother, is the real racist.

Why would you be offended about a question of heritage, unless you hate those people raised in the question.

Black folks are ashamed of being black. Which is why they try their best to hook up with white women or any other race because they won't accept the fact that their asses was born black and they are gonna die black. Get over it! it is what it is!

And IF that were the case, why are they ashamed of being black? It's easy to spew stupidity and ignorance while taking subtle shots, but try to find the root of their self-hatred.

Dig into the history of West Africans who were forced into slavery and spread across the globe. See how they contributed to the foundation of America and got nothing in return. I won't even get into the violence and psychological abuse these Africans endured.

Let's move into the 60's-80s where black people were mistreated and disrespected day in and day out. Homes burned, churches burned, kids killed, black teen boys disappearing only to be found lynched in the woods.

Now the 80s, the imports of drugs and guns and the lust for material wants are a bad mix. Where were these energies being directed? To poor black teens surrounded by guns and drugsin poor neighborhoods. What's left to do? Your family doesn't have shit. Your father was kicked out because that would be only way your "household" could qualify for government benefits. So now you have no direction from a male figure, your mother is never home, Your white school teachers couldn't give two shits if you learned or not. So what to do? Sell the drugs that were brought into your neighborhood.

Start adding things up buddy. There's a reason little black girls are picking white dolls instead of black dolls when it comes to preference. Do you research and learn about the people you are talking shit about before you speak again.

political correctness is a doctrine.... fostered by a delusional, illogical minority...... and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media; which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
