RACISM

Unfortunately what I call passive racism is ingrained in out society. Many people would declare tat they were not racist at the same time as using offensive ‘banter’. Until we confront our history we will be blighted by the virus of racism. Of course statues to the murderers of the past should be moved, the National Trust should declare where the huge wealth that enabled our stately homes to be built comes from. Perhaps too many in the wealthy echelons of society still reap benefits from the gross abuse of the poor.
