In terms of teaching how to avoid racial stereotyping... ?

HUh? This for me?

It's from Dr. Seuss's book "Oh The Places You Will Go!"

I read it to my daughter every night.

It's the bright places where the BOOM BANDS are playing!

I think you've just run afoul of the UK PC PD!

And I remember that books I was given as a kid, included "golliwogs" and other offensive stereotypes - in fact children's books are often the worst, when it comes to ingraining stereotypes - as people don't look at them critically in the same way they would at a book aimed at adults.

Um, guys? It's a ****ing Dr. Seuss picture, for god's sake. What's next...someone's gonna complain that the Lorax looks like Wilfred Brimley? Let it go.

It was just a thow-away joke - so we were talking about inappropriate images for children and it struck me as ironic that we try to keep them away from images of nakedness, but are happy for them to grow up with archaic racial stereotypes...

I think this is a serious point though - as I said - I can remember kindergarten books which were horrendously racist !

I'm not complaining - just pointing out an interesting cultural "dissonance"...?

 

[Marcus Johnson]

Okay, back to what's really important... where the hell is WARPEDBATON, anyway?

C'mon, people...FOCUS.

You're not opposed to a bit of "Free Blowing" are you...?

 

[Francois Blais]

As long as it's in good taste, and doesn't bring complaints...

Well now that's another subject altogether.....

 

[Paul Warburton]

Some things never change. Bruce beats me at grouch...
Marcus beats me at sick.

 

[Jake deVilliers]

I can't believe we've never seen this image from KITTYBOY DURRL!

 

[Marcus Johnson]

Marcus beats me at sick.

Wow. I am humbled and honored.
