Clearly in the current climate of racial realpolitik and understanding I can now post jokes such as the above whereas previously they would have been malignant racist insults based upon racial stereotypes that perpetuate the image of African Americans as primitive melon munching, kool-aid drinking blacks just off the plantation. Now we can apparently recognise such ‘jokes’ as genuine social commentary reflective of the authentic black experience and lifestyle….the joke is now culturally appropriate. Previously associating such cultural delights with black people was racist stereotyping, now it’s an essential part of their culture that must not be appropriated by the white people, so understand this….White people cannot eat fried chicken or water melons or drink Kool-aid from now on…not without licence from an approved black person….how black is authentic black? Don’t start. Sounds all very Hitlerian.
Whatismore, the blatant cultural theft and pillaging by the Rolling Stones can now be seen for what it was…the oppression of the black race as the interplay of power dynamics meant that the white, socially more powerful and racially privileged Stones, could steal black music for their own profit. You may listen to the below to enhance your understanding of the racial issues…but do not enjoy it….
The BBC has of course been at the forefront of the movement to disbar white people from cultural sharing and assimilation….the West Indies can play cricket but if you white you can’t wear plaits in your hair man.
Biased BBC naturally has been chasing the BBC on this for a long time now as the BBC helps to stir up the pot of racist apartheid that some black race hustlers seem intent on creating.
Here and here you can take a long leisurely look at a couple of posts that explore the BBC’s dangerous approach to such a controversial and inflammatory subject.
The BBC’s latest promotion of the issue was on Newsnight (23 mins) [H/T Destroy-Deny-Degrade-Disrupt] where we had a Muslim in America and Emma Dabiri on the anti-white side [along with the sycophantic Wark] and one man, Ian Dunt, to defend the cultural thieving toerags.
The Muslim lady told us that it was inappropriate to take someone else’s culture and to profit from it without their permission…as she sat there with an Islamic crescent on a necklace representing a religion that stole and plagiarised from Christianity, Judaism and other cultures to cobble together the Islamic religion….and in doing so insults and denigrates those religions it usurps….never mind killing their believers.
Dabiri is the most amusing though, and the most confused having a white Irish mother and an African father [It’s OK to ‘appropriate’ white women but not black hairstyles?]…. she claims she isn’t white.…but identifies as Black…how so?
Though my mum’s Irish, my father is Nigerian. I am not white!
As for cultural sharing she seems to be all for that as long as you aren’t white….which she isn’t!….
Identities should not be forged out of experiences of racism alone, but also through a sense of shared cultural references.
Despite not admittting to being white she does claim to be Irish and to claim her heritage in the 1916 rising….
The child of an immigrant Irish mother living in the US, I grew up immersed in tales of heroic Irishmen. I particularly remember the story of Connolly who, bleeding profusely from his wounds and unable to walk, was carried to the firing range by the British soldiers.
And to Ireland I did indeed fly. When I was five years old we returned, me with a head full of myths, songs, legends and expectations about that homecoming.
Many of the problems arose out of my claims of Irishness itself. That was what really seemed to offend people’s sensibilities. Irishness is synonymous with whiteness, it seemed. Whiteness is “pure” and doesn’t extend to brown girls, even those who can trace their Irish ancestry back to the 10th century. How frequently I heard that I “wasn’t really Irish”. But I am Irish. In addition to being born there, my mother, her parents before her, and theirs before them, for generations and generations, are all Irish.
Did those revolutionary men and women who fought so bravely to liberate the land of my birth, who captured my imagination from such a young age, fight for my liberation too?
Interesting that she wants to claim to be Irish and the Irish weren’t so impressed with that… a matter that Dabiri thought was racist and offensive. But she still thinks white people can’t wear their hair in plaits…though she herself can have straightened hair…even though she isn’t white…..
She does make a living out of being ‘professionally black’ so we can’t expect the real world to impose itself upon her academic ivory, or is that ebony, tower…..perhaps we should name her after a famous Irish stout…black, Irish with a hint of white…..
Let’s see Emma (Good African heritage name) Dabiri live the cowboy…and dress the part she so much claims to own…..when not being Irish…
Here’s the BBC’s culturally authentic ‘blackman’, Alvin Hall…
Oh…sorry…this is him…
It is a curious thing that the BBC should be so happy promoting what is in fact a ‘white supremacist’ theme of non-integration and racial purity….
The BBC in alliance with the Nazis? Who’d have thought.
As someone who is a quarter Irish, quarter Welsh, and half ‘shit-for-brains’ English (the penance for being an atheist), I don’t understand why so many people scramble to associate themselves with Ireland even though they have no remote chance of tracing their family tree back to that jewel of emerald beauty.
I have an ex-friend who dated a woman who was born in Liverpool but brought up in the Nottingham area since she was 2 years old, just so that he could say he was somehow related to Liverpool and – furthermore – to the Irish relationship between those two places.
Edward, all I know is your a 100% ROPer loving, Al Beeb worshipping, gobshite bellend, who trys to do the bigoted lefts traitorous work on this website by continually trying to find technicalities on Alan’s posts to make it seem like he isn’t telling the truth. You fail epically. You just come across as a privileged snot faced imbecile who has been silverspoon fed his whole life
I don’t like cricket, oh no.
Time for a holiday.
I am sure in their heart of hearts all these cultural misappropriation, lefty, right on guru types know this is shite of the highest order.
However it is very useful and another guilt and control tool where in the end we all feel guilty for having the wrong skin colour and/or having hideously white names.
Whilst we have the likes of the whimpering Benedict regularly apologising for all the evils that the white race regularly heap upon the world these arseholes will continue to peddle this shit on news programmes, generally hosted by the same right on types who all go to the same dinner parties and are rich and bored enough to think this bollocks is actually important.
Meanwhile the chattering classes attention is either diverted away from or is too cowed by guilt trips to discuss the real problem which currently afflicts our society – INWARD MIGRATION!
Anyone remember that outstanding BBC personality, Hardeep Singh Kolhi? He’s all over BBC radio and televisionI, this might bring you up to speed:
As a landlord:
In June 2008, The Herald reported: “Properties owned and rented by comedian Hardeep Singh Kohli have been branded ‘grubby and dirty’ and substandard as the celebrity was issued with warnings over his conduct as a landlord. Mr Kohli… was also denied three-year licences for two flats which are part of a raft he owns and leases through his father’s company in Glasgow’s west end.”
Suspension from the BBC’s The One Show:
In July 2009, Kohli was suspended from his roving reporter role on The One Show after an informal complaint by a female member of staff for inappropriate sexual behaviour. He apologised unreservedly. No formal action was taken by the BBC and the story was leaked to the newspapers. It was said in March 2010 that it was possible he could return to the show but he never appeared again.
Hardeep is a BBC bastion of cultural misappropriation, his turban, kilt and Scottish accent are his trademarks!
If he isn’t a star witness at Jesse Norman’s new inquiry, there is no justice.
I met a Sikh in a kilt in an Edinburgh souvenir shop. He explained that while some kilts were related to specific clans and shouldn’t be worn by someone not related many patterns were general and could be worn by anyone. For example some companies have kilts worn by employees.
FYI Scotland the Brave It’s only taken more than 300 years but the approximately 6,400 Jews of Scotland, finally have their own registered tartan.
On my dad’s side Welsh since the ice-age and on my mother’s side Irish since around the same time (may still have been a land-bridge back then of course).
As diverse as you get.
I’m glad my dad bred out……..
“Bred out” boohanna? As all the ethnic British are descended from the same earlier ethnic groups, and the ‘Celtic’ fringe are closer even to each other than to the mostly Anglo Saxons on he East side of the country, any genetic difference between your mum and dad will be no more than between two random Welsh people, or two random Irish.
In one of my rare forays into Newsnight (just how bad does it have to get before it gets taken down?), I saw this piece. I think Ian Dunt deserves an award for biting his tongue and not telling Dabiri, ‘I’m sorry, I haven’t got a fucking clue what you’re on about.’
Dabiri proved that you can ‘appropriate’ as many big words and phrases as you like, but to use them you need to have a modicum of intelligence, otherwise it comes across as the impenetrable, meaningless drivel that she spouted last night.
Dabiri’s pseudo intellectual posturing was a bit like an oral version of one of Les Dawson’s piano performances
H/T Alan.
Got to say I like this picture you used.

I’m going to look further into it, for research reasons…
I’ve done the research and the conclusion is gravity still works!
Haha!
Granddad was a child of an immigrant Irish mother living in Hull, he didn’t grow up immersed in tales of heroic Irishmen, because she was drunk most of the time.
And to Ireland he did not fly, but he did design aircraft. The Irish song “Bantry Bay“ was appropriate for any homecoming. Irishness is synonymous with whiteness, and so is Englishness or Britishness. Most Irish loyalists where protestants, but most Catholics working in England at the time, remained loyal to the Crown. In fact some fought and won the Civil War for an Irish Free State within the British Empire, which lasted until the Irish republic was founded in 1949.
Could a person as dusky as Damari just move into an all white Irish village and be accepted as just another citizen? Declaring oneself black is just so much easier.
“If I die in police custody, burn everything down.” Patrisse Cullors, cofounder of #BlackLivesMatter. Appropriating a Chinese made scarf iconic of a branch of Arab culture is just solidarity.
With you apart from the Stones. A bunch of Assholes who served up black music to a white middle class audience.
