Drop Dead Racist?

"I can't remember being sent a model who wasn't white," said the former fashion manager. "I don't know if it's racism, or just the fashion industry languishing in the doldrums, but it needs to change. Agencies only seem interested in leggy white blonde girls."

"Fashion industry insiders have criticised modelling agencies for encouraging a culture of "blatant racism" in the business and announced an emergency summit with race campaigners and politicians to try to tackle the issue."

Now I hope you are not advocating thought control and behaviour modification Scott, if that is what agencies (and by inference the rest of the population) prefer then who on Earth are you, or indeed anyone else, to gainsay? More cultural Marxism anyone.

You're citing American articles and US court judgements, and you realise that I'm writing from Britain? London, Leicester and Birmingham will soon be "non-white-majority" cities. Our fashion industry doesn't reflect that. It should! To say so isn't Marxist mind control (Scott twiddling his fingers hypnotically).
