In the last week there has been a strong reaction in Australia to recently surfaced tapes of a Trevor Noah performance which had vile racist and sexist slurs against Aboriginal women. While he now claims to know better it is incomprehensible how just a few years ago he was so ready to pander to and propagate the most vile slurs. Similarly the Irish Times review below brought to my attention elements of racist and even Confederate sympathies on the part of Oscar Wilde that are disappointing considering his own suffering of national and sexual discrimination and persecution. https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/books/oscar-wilde-s-links-to-blackface-and-racism-1.3566616 _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
