A primary school has slammed a P&C fundraiser held on its campus after a father wore blackface and a dreadlocked wig before winning the prize for best dressed.
The man wore the offensive outfit to a '90s themed bingo night organised by the P&C committee at North Woodvale Primary School in Perth's north.
He should have said he didn't think it would be a problem, since it wasn't for the PM of Canada!
Guests were invited to come as their favourite '90s character, with the man dressing as a member of the Jamaican bobsleigh team from the comedy Cool Runnings.
Who were all black. And incidentally, that's probably a film that could never be made today!
The school's P&C bingo committee has been forced to apologise after the matter was brought to the attention of North Woodvale's principal.
Another DEI advocate, no doubt.
"Education Department Director General Lisa Rodgers " << there's the problem. Probably forgotten her valium recently.
ReplyDeleteWhy does an organisation like this need a Director General?!?
DeleteDid they refund all the money they had raised? And did the primary school squealer then compensate the fundraisers losses?
ReplyDeleteI thought the thing to do with these situations is to never apologise and never explain.
Perhaps they should insist? Hitting them in the pocket is the only way...
