Any and every book written decades ago will have something offensive in it for some. They were, like the statues and works of art that so offend the permanently offended, of their time...from Shakespeare to Blyton....burn them all.
To kill a Mockingbird is one of my favourite films.

It doesn't help that a lot of age old local customs just don't generate interest with Jo public anymore, so they fade and are taken over by other cultures who do still have a pride in their past.
Whit walks, Mayday, Guy Fawkes, just 3 examples of events that were hugely celebrated either locally or nationally.... just fmostly orgotten about.
People complain about mosques being built and churches turning into carpet warehouses....maybe because people attend mosques and churches sit idle.
We seem to have no bloody backbone in this country. It seems sometimes, in order the humour the minority the majority are trodden on.
Other countries celebrate their history at best, accept it at worst....not us...we are beginning to pretend it never happened..
Which means in years to come. All knowledge of slavery will cease to exist like it never happened. Because there will be no history of it ever happening.
What will the do then. when they can't keep bringing it up as an excuse for their life's failures?

Exactly and let's face it (although not fashionable to say in today's climate) few countries have given more to the world than the UK.
few countries have taken more than the UK as well. There is a reason why GB is hated around the world. Colonialism is one of them. Keeping third world countries in that state while Britain plundered and rape them is nothing to be proud of as you are displaying here. When the people became educated enough to understand that the British were not their lord and masters. Britain nearly always got kicked out. But not before British forces slaughtered the indigenous inhabitants by the thousands.
Saying you're not responsible for what your forefathers did isn't a get out clause when you then boast what the UK has given to the world.
I live in NYC, I have a app called citizen which will tell you if any crimes or accidents happen around. The idea being that if you're out and your citizen app pings. You can head away from the crime or accident.
Last night my phone was pinging off the hook. Every couple of minutes for about two hours solid. The app was letting me know that shots fired or people stabbed. I'd advise anyone thinking of coming here for a holiday to change their minds. The city has gone to hell and is not safe for people to walk around or use the subway. NYC is a gun free zone but somebody forgot to tell the criminals this. It's run by Democrats who have tied the cops hands with this BLM BS. It's now catch and release for most crimes.
These twats from Hollywood think they are being cool and right on with videos like this. What they are doing is actually back firing on them because people have had enough of them.
Just watched a story on BBC about 'Postcode' gangs in London and the vast number of black on black stabbings and deaths - why does BLM never speak up about this?
It's fine slagging off the coppers about stop and search and centuries old statues etc but does the truth hurt too much?
I think it does.

Yeah, I always think that they should not be called 'gangsters' they are not gangsters just low life gang scum who have to prove how 'tough' they are by committing savage cowardly violence with knives, machetes swords etc.
Has BLM or the virtue signallers commented on this case and many like them?
The silence is deafening.

I totally agree JD. There are more black on black stabbings then ever. London is rife with these low life gangs. Not a word from BLM though, as no white person or police were involved. BLM is very racist!

Can you imagine if it was a white gang of thugs that murdered poor David Gomoh in such a savage fashion?
It would be headline news for weeks if not months, BLM and the woke virtue signallers would hold demonstrations or riots, questions would be held in Parliament etc.
It's such obvious double standards.

Maybe if GB hadn't so much to the world as you dumbly put it. You wouldn't have all the commonwealth immigrants in the UK. You really think colonization of countries (many of which still live in third world conditions after British brutality) was a benefit to the world?
