Quote:
Why black sheep are barred and Humpty can't be crackedTRADITIONAL nursery rhymes are being rewritten at nursery schools to avoid causing offence to children.
Instead of singing “Baa baa, black sheep” as generations of children have learnt to do, toddlers in Oxfordshire are being taught to sing “Baa baa, rainbow sheep”.
The move, which critics will seize on as an example of political correctness, was made after the nurseries decided to re-evaluate their approach to equal opportunities.
This sort of thing is a disgrace.
Let's have a look at the original nursery rhyme, shall we?
Baa, baa, black sheep,
Have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir,
Three bags full.
One for the master,
One for the dame,
And one for the little boy
Who lives down the lane.
Baa, baa, black sheep,
Have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir,
Three bags full.
Please help me find the racism and xenophobia in these words, because I'm damned if I can see them.
The 'diversity' industry is creating this dangerous nonsense and I suspect real ethnic minority people are not consulted on the vast majority of these ridiculous moves.
Meanwhile, most real racists will simply carry on with almost no chance of being identified by these mindless cretins.
