I don't know if it is justified, but Ngozi Fulani has made a career out of being offended and she may have gone a bit too far this time. I can see the Charity Commissioners stumbling into action and having a look at the books of that charity she runs |

It would help if some people actually understood is what Racism is. prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism by an individual, community, or institution against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized: "a programme to combat racism" racial discrimination racialism racial prejudice xenophobia the belief that different races possess distinct characteristics, abilities, or qualities, especially so as to distinguish them as inferior or superior to one another: These days Handyman racism is anything a black person says it is. The Law says differently it is supposed to protect everyone regardless of their ethnicity and nationality gender sexuality, but some don't understand that |

I do hope so what a nasty thing to do to a woman who has served her country so well, Fulani has acted as judge jury and executioner towards and elderly woman who may well be suffering from the onset of Dementia, which is a terrible thing to happen, very frightening and upsetting, and not nice for their loved ones to watch as it slowly destroys the person they love |

I'll remember that the next time someone asks me where I'm from, when I am abroad I've been asked that question many many times, I've never felt the need to start screeching ......... you Racists. I don't think you're a broad.  |

Yesterday I watched an in depth interview on the BBC with American born playright Bonnie Greer, herself a woman of Afro-Caribbean heritage.
She confirmed what I always believed to be true, she affirmed that neither King Charles or the Prince of Wales are in the slightest way racist, and she has met both several times.
I think this story is been over-played, not least because some people wrongly believe that it taints the Royal Family as been racist, whereas in fact ( in my opinion ) it was simply one batty old lady, who probably did not mean any offence, but has outdated views.

The Palace acted in an uncharacteristically decisive manner over the latest example of its inability to relate acceptability to the modern world. This time it didn’t deny, prevaricate, or stay schtum. New advisers? It’s the usual Daily Mail, Express, Telegraph, readers who appear to be excusing the latest lapse of someone most would like to believe is one of them. Despite the media-led animosity towards the royal family’s more colourful couple, this current story seems to add credibility to the Sussexes’ claims about their treatment while part of the firm… By 'modern world', does that mean black people are superior, and white people must obey and cower down to them?
Aren't we going backwards and not forwards?
I thought the general goal was we are all 'equals'?
You can apply whatever subtext you like to my phrase "the modern world", but it doesn't change my meaning.
I don't see where I've suggested anyone is superior, or needs to "cower down", to anyone.
Isn't the Palace acting "in an uncharacteristically decisive manner" an advance?
I hope you're in favour of the general goal — unless you mean in a Marxist/Leninist way...

It was blown out of proportion by the black lady, and instead of hearing both sides of the story every one jumped to the wrong conclusion, now the dust has settled the majority of people realise it was a none story from a black lady who was just attention seeking, for reasons best known to herself.
A innocent remark taken totally out of context, and now it will be the black lady suffering the backlash.

Apparently, she supports Harry and Megan and the rumours of racism by the Royal Family towards Megan, the truth will out as they say,

Aren’t you included in “everyone”? Judging by the comments here, blowing out of proportion could apply both ways. Would the Palace really get rid of their Meeter and Greeter so rapidly if there hadn’t been a case to answer? But as you point out, it’s “context”, and the Wales’s are on a visit to a friendly country, and are in danger of being upstaged by others who have dared complain about their treatment at the hands of the Palace — not a good start to regime change in the monarchy, is it…? |

FFS get a grip, she wasn't publicly flogged in the palace, she was asked 'where do you come from'.
Do you see how stupid and ridiculous it is when you actually think about it.
