At last, Onasanya the perjurer and convicted criminal has been ousted.

To top it off, post prison, she had zero morality, holding onto to her well paid job as a lawmaker.

Ah,but she is a politician and therefore will not have done anything wrong,you know that.

Only in the strange world of those who wish to stir up racial division would you equate a monkey with a black person.She is a horrible human being.

Racists commonly use monkey taunts/chants/comments at black people (see Trafalgar Square on Saturday). The racists have already done the equating for her.

She has a point.

This seems like another unconscious micro-aggression from years and years ago.

Did the people who gave the names to Rice Krispies and Coco Pops make a choice based on racism? Almost certainly not.

Did the people who gave the names to Rice Krispies and Coco Pops think about the effect of their name on Black people or did anyone who was Black play any part in the decision making process? Almost certainly not.

Black people have to navigate all sorts of micro aggressions everyday. We should all be pro-actively be trying to reduce the amount of them that they have to face.

Did the people that designed these cereals really expect people to start comparing the associated characters - Pixies ( yes, PIXIES ! ) for one and a jungle animal for the other ? World's gone mad !

There's only one thing worse than Coco Pops Micro Aggression Racism and that is the Sexual Fascism lurking round the Gherkin...

I thought this might quantify total agreement on this being utter nonsense but then I remembered there’s always one sympathiser with this kind of thing on here isn’t there. :lolol:

I for one think it’s RACIST that white coco pops, don’t have a white representative.B6DB4FD2-E194-48EA-8D4F-D8C31DC81D5B.jpeg

What on earth are you on about?

“Unconscious micro aggression” talking about a breakfast cereal?

And from Fiona Onasanya?

Ian Wright on 5live last night wished that people didn’t start and concentrate on these ‘stories’. Onasanya this time, but often by stirring racists turning much of the public against the true fight against real racism. Systemic and the violent/trolling stuff Wrighty faces on the internet.

Aside from that, is it possible that the Coco Pops marketing is simply the same as Frosties Tiger or Fox’s Polar Bear. Created to draw in kids with a cute animal? Just asking.

Almost as ridiculous as a post I saw the other day of a picture of a snooker table with the caption of something along the lines of 'is the white still allowed to hit the black'?

Or people being outraged because they actually believed an Express front page that said, following the Fawlty Towers DRAMA, Gavin and Stacey was going to be pulled because of the character who has a nickname 'Chinese' (because he likes Chinese food).

I’m pretty sure those people weren’t black and that the designers did not think about race or consulting black opinion on their ideas. No crime there but perhaps it’s time to re-evaluate these characters?

Certainly time to get rid of this oppressive symbol of white supremacy.
