Well, when discussing racism, and golliwogs...im just saying...if you ask black people if they find it offensive, a lot of people will say yes. The people I know would say yes for sure.
For people to say categorically, as they have on this thread that its not deemed offensive, I beg to differ...
Ive never seen any golliwog presented to a black person, as the presenter would KNOW it would be offensive, and could expect some sort of repercussion, but ill let the white folk decide what is offensive for black people.
Your mate is different from my mates then Pastafarian.....its a discussion our family had in the past, and the outcome was not....hahaha...it was fairly...well, very negative towards the subject. Maybe rastas view this sort of thing differently...but the general opinion was that they were...
ah..white people deciding what is racist. Any black people on this thread?
I can assure you that black people I know would possibly shove a gollywog up your arse if presented with one.
