FROM LONDON EVENING STANDARD
HEAD: Children as young as three should be reported for 'racism',
Government-funded group claims
Nursery teachers should inform on youngsters such as these if there is a
'racist incident', says a Government-funded advisory group
Toddlers should be taught about racism and singled out for criticism if they
have racist attitudes, a Government-funded advisory group said yesterday.
It told nursery teachers, playgroup leaders and childminders to record and
report every racist incident involving children as young as three.
These could include saying 'Yuk' about unfamiliar food.
Even babies should not be ignored in the hunt for racism because they can
'recognise different people in their lives', a new guide for nurseries and
child care centres said.
The instructions for staff in charge of pre-school children in day care have
been produced by the National Children's Bureau, which receives £12million a
year, mostly through taxpayer-funded organisations.
The NCB, which describes itself as 'an umbrella body for the children's
sector', has long used its resources to campaign on controversial issues,
for example in favour of a legal ban on smacking by parents.
It also runs the Sex Education Forum, a campaign for more sex education in
schools.
The new 366-page guide, Young Children and Racial Justice, warned that
'racist incidents among children in early years settings-tend to be around
name-calling-casual thoughtless comments, and peer group relationships'.
It said such incidents could include children using words like 'blackie',
'Pakis', 'those people' or 'they smell'.
Children might also 'react negatively to a culinary tradition other than
their own by saying "yuk".'
Nursery staff are told: 'No racist incident should be ignored. When there is
a clear racist intent, it is necessary to be specific in condemning the
action.'
If children 'reveal negative attitudes the lack of censure may indicate to
the child that there is nothing unacceptable about such attitudes'.
Nurseries are encouraged to report as many racist incidents as possible to
local councils.
'Some people think that if a large number of racist incidents are reported,
this will reflect badly on the institution,' it said. 'In fact, the opposite
is the case.'
The guidance said that anyone who disagrees is racist themselves.
**************
It's sad to see "this island, this England" so full of self-loathing. The
report's contention "anyone who disagrees is racist themselves" describes
the loony left, fright-wig wearing red noses 'round here who just wuv
Barack, the Magic Negro, and call "racist" anyone who can see B,TMN's bony
black ass because he ain't wearing no clothes.

Teachers reporting racist toddlers need to also demonstrate their open-
mindedness
by eating some roasted scorpions and a sea cucumber or two.
