Anybody ever seen a rainbow sheep? You couldn't make it up could you...when I was a kid there was a telly programme ( and accompanying song) called "white horses". Do you think if they remade it it would be called "rainbow horses"? People who see the word " black" as a racist slur when used in a perfectly normal context are surely the ones making it so. And that's what's gets my goat today..
Can you imagine coming out with a song"young gifted and white" ? bet it wouldn't even get published :eek
never look down on anyone unless you're helping them up.
