The Queen of England Sells Racist Toys?
Need to pick up a racist toy for your kid? Until recently you could have gotten one courtesy of the Queen of England.
At one of the Queen’s estates, amongst the Queen Elizabeth II memorabilia, castle snow globes and commemorative decorative teaspoons, you can get your self some good old school racism in the form of a Golliwog doll. The Golliwog is a minstrel like rag doll character created by the children
There has not been a “Queen of England” for over 400 years. ARSE
The sad truth is that racism like this is much more tolerated in Europe than it is here. Only 10 years ago, I went to a costume party in France, and a few people were dressed in blackface. When I expressed my shock, they all made fun of me for being a “politically correct American”.
Doesn’t seem to represent people, let alone any race.
Those dolls are unacceptable.
I am so sick of this Golliwog doll and of the people that defend it. How could someone even begin to think that this doll was even a little bit ok? I don’t get it. Still so many hold it dear as the stuff of childhood. Yuck!
