It’s not just you. It is obnoxious
What I don’t get it why are people obsessed with the Titanic, plenty of shipwrecks but why is the Titantic the big one? Is it because it’s so far down or is it because of the ship itself?

1·3 years agoIf they also studied a book that contained racist terms for white people, then it would be fair in that context.
However are there any racial slurs for white people that are as offensive as it is for black people? I don’t honestly think so.
Societies moving on, time to drop off mice and men from the syllabus and educate as to why it was removed in a different classroom setting.

0·3 years agoSounds like I had a crap English teacher then if being taught “half-caste” was meant to frame it as a racist term.

0·3 years agoThe main complaint is that for people of colour, to be sat in a classroom with their peers whilst the derogatory words are read out loud is highly uncomfortable for them. I totally can understand that and why this is now coming up as more and more of the UK are becoming multicultural.
It should be taught in a classroom yes, but probably not in English literature class and something more like a Modern History of British Culture class, where it can be explained why Of Mice and Men was originally selected for a GCSE book, why it’s no longer acceptable, why the derogatory words are disgraceful and then why it was removed from the syllabus. This gives an all round education on the subject. Not perfect but it’s a start.
When I was in high school I was told half-caste was an acceptable term in the mid 2000s, and I still accidentally used it till a couple years ago because I was never told otherwise. It was only because of a friend who is more social than I am told me it’s no longer acceptable to use to refer to people with mixed racial parents.

UK Politics@feddit.uk•Horror as woman sentenced to over a year in prison for taking abortion pillsEnglish
0·3 years agoWhat’s been conveniently left out of this article is how long past the legal final termination date she took the pills, she took the tablets at 32-34 weeks, this almost full term! Full term is 40 weeks. She knew what she was doing and purposely lied to Drs and others over it.
How is what this woman did any different from the other woman who is currently on trial for murdering pre-mature babies by air embolisms.




















It doesn’t look that good that’s why, only got Xbox games pass this week myself too
