Commenting on images for deletion

I've noticed that you've left comments on the talk pages of several images that have been nominated for deletion. The discussions for such deletions actually take place at WP:IFD, which can be accessed through a link on the deletion template on the image's page. You may have to check the date the image was nominated to find the image's entry. Additionally, please keep in mind that images are kept or deleted based on their value to this encyclopedia, not on users' personal opinions of the subject matter. Commenting on the physical attractiveness of the person in a picture does not help toward this goal, and may be construed as a personal attack in some cases.

By the way, I noticed that no one has ever given you a proper welcome to Wikipedia! I've posted a welcome template below. It has many useful links that can help you to learn your way around the place. --Icarus ^(Hi!) 12:07, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is it that if a picture of a brick was orphaned or put up to troll, it would be deleted A.S.A.P.; but if it was an ugly old bloke, it's nominated, only to be left in limbo because a bloke can sue, unlike a brick. I agree with removing low resolution map images. --Homer slips. 19:56, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

To ad to this, thst calling the above mentioned brick unencyclopedic and low-res' map obsolete is safe, unlike the bloke because- The bloke sues, but brick and map can't so they get scrubbed rather than just removed. --Homer slips. 20:05, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Homer slips. I'm sorry to be a pain, but an anon just tried to delete one of your images (the one to the right). They did so claiming that it had spelling errors. It's a lame reason for deleting such a quality image, and someone did the right thing and restored it. However, it does in fact have at least one spelling error ("permanent" is spelt "perminent"). As I notice you generated the image recently, I thought it might be easy for you to regenerate a corrected version. No worries if not. I do feel rather cheeky asking.

The truth over B.B., 2007!

thumb|150px|right|The Big Brother logo.

Celebrity Big Brother 2007 was the fifth series of the United Kingdom reality television series Celebrity Big Brother, a spin-off of Big Brother. The series was broadcast on Channel 4 in the UK (also on S4C in Wales), and involved a number of celebrities referred to as 'housemates', who live in the Big Brother House with no contact with the outside world. In recent series, the show's producers have offered celebrities money to appear on Celebrity Big Brother.

Celebrity Big Brother 2007 started on 3 January 2007, "[--://press.channel4.com/listings/live/C4/live/2007_1/index.htm Celebrity Big Brother Launch Night]", Channel 4 Press. URL last accessed on 2006-12-08. and ran for 26 days. The launch show peaked at 8.2 million viewers, making it the second most-watched launch in Big Brother history. [--://thediaryroom.net/tbbs/index.php?page=ratings Viewing Figures] The Celebrity Big Brother Show URL last accessed 2007-01-07 It was the first Celebrity Big Brother series to be shown in the 16:9 widescreen format and the final Celebrity series to be held in the Elstree compound with the regular series later in the year being the final one overall.

On 16 January 2007 this series had attracted the largest ever number of public complaints to the UK broadcasting watchdog Ofcom about a Big Brother series. "[--://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6265127.stm Ofcom probes Big Brother racism]", BBC News. URL last accessed on 2007-01-16 The complaints received detailed concerns that housemate Shilpa Shetty had been subjected to bullying, allegedly with undertones of racism. [--://www.channel4.com/news/content/news-storypage.jsp?id=6963256 Big Brother:thousands complain]", Channel 4 News. URL last accessed on 2007-01-16 As an example, Danielle Lloyd called Shilpa "a dog" and that she should "fuck off home". This sparked widespread anger and demonstrations in India, where the alleged racism was reported on the news, and led Big Brother's main sponsor Carphone Warehouse to suspend its sponsorship of the show.

URL last accessed on 2007-01-20 As of January 19, 2007, a Channel 4 spokesman agreed that participants should be made aware of the controversy, probably explaining the recent explanations and apologies tendered by the housemates and their complete lack of surprise after learning about the latest eviction. --://www.mirror.co.uk/news/tm_headline=no-crowd-no-shock---no-reality&method=full&objectid=18505500&siteid=94762-name_page.html

As in earlier series, Davina McCall presented the main Channel 4 show. Dermot O'Leary presented Celebrity Big Brother's Little Brother and Celebrity Big Brother's Big Brain. Russell Brand presented Celebrity Big Brother's Big Mouth.

The setting

The general layout of the House was largely untouched from the previous non-celebrity series. The living room and bedroom had no noticeable changes. There were several single beds in the same room, with one double bed, meaning that two housemates (Leo & Donny) had to share. The bathroom is much smaller than previous versions and the toilet and shower were no longer fitted with cameras. The dining room table was moved inside, and the kitchen fully equipped with modern conveniences. Outside the garden was a three-jet hot tub with a farmyard seating area. The bridge to Nowhere was still present, leading to a sitting area with heated seats and the topiary man. A workout area was situated just off the kitchen area. Inside the House there was also a fax machine built into the wall. On day 24 this was used to post viewers' questions to the housemates. --://www.channel4.com/entertainment/tv/microsites/B/bb7_celebrity/news/newsstory.jsp?id=1428&articleMask=1&housemateId= Questions, Questions Channel Four's Official Big Brother Website. URL last accessed on 2007-01-26. Meanwhile, the Diary Room was identical to the previous summer's Big Brother, with an oversized gold chair and padded walls, the only change being the addition of yellow lights facing the walls. The House Next Door was used again, and its interior was re-designed to resemble a Victorian style kitchen, with uncomfortable beds in the bedroom, for use in the master-and-servant task.

Eleven housemates entered the Celebrity Big Brother house on Day 1 followed by three more housemates on Day 3. This was more than any other celebrity series to date (the regular series in 2006 has had fourteen housemates enter on Day 1). The housemates in Celebrity Big Brother 2007 were (in alphabetical order by first name):

Carole Malone

Carole Malone (born 14 October 1954) is a columnist for the Sunday Mirror. She starred in the 2006 series of Celebrity Fit Club on ITV. On Day 2 Carole broke Big Brother rules by discussing nominations with Shilpa and Cleo. Confirmed by Dermot O'Leary on the January 5, 2007 edition of Big Brother's Little Brother Carole was a servant during the Master and Servant task. Carole was put up for eviction after being unanimously chosen between her and Cleo by her fellow housemates to face the public vote as punishment for discussing nominations. Carole was evicted on Day 10. Carole has revealed that her real age is in fact 52 and not 47. "[--://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6257907.stm Malone evicted from Big Brother]", BBC News. URL last accessed on 2007-01-12.

Cleo Rocos

Cleo Rocos (born July 24, 1962 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) is a comic actress who appeared on The Kenny Everett Television Show. Cleo has developed a maternal role in the house and tends to look after the younger housemates and do such things as cook and clean for them, which was first pointed out by Ian and Jo on Day 2. [--://www.channel4.com/entertainment/tv/microsites/B/bb7_celebrity/news/newsstory.jsp?id=1058&articleMask=1 Phew! Hot Mamma] Channel 4's official Big Brother site. URL last accessed on 2007-01-05 On Day 2, Cleo broke Big Brother rules by discussing nominations with Shilpa and Carole.^[1] As punishment, the rest of the housemates (except Carole but including Shilpa) were made to vote unanimously on who should face the public vote. Cleo was not chosen. Cleo was a servant during the Master and Servant task. In battle of the tribute bands she was in Jermaine's group as a member of the Jackson 5, the group won. She was evicted on Day 24, along with Jo.

Danielle Lloyd

Danielle Lloyd (born Liverpool, 16 December, 1983) is an English model and former Miss Great Britain (2006), stripped of her title for dating a panel judge, footballer Teddy Sheringham, and posing for Playboy. Danielle was a servant during the Master and Servant task. She was accused of racist bullying of her fellow house mate Shilpa Shetty, along with Jade Goody and Jo O'Meara. Danielle eventually finished 5th on final night. Lloyd garnered significant negative publicity when thousands of complaints were filed with Ofcom after she, Jade Goody and Jo O'Meara, dubbed "The Witches (or Bitches) of Elstree" were accused of bullying and making racist remarks towards their fellow house mate, Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty.

Specific comments Lloyd has made about Shetty include "She's a dog" and "They eat with their hands in India, don't they – or is that China? You don't know where her hands have been." --://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6265127.stm title=Big Brother: Thousands complain --://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/showbiz/bigbrother.html?in_article_id=429106&in_page_id=1894. In another outburst, Lloyd said "do you get stubble?" --://edinburghnews.scotsman.com/index.cfm?id=88442007 On 17 January, 2007 Lloyd said Shetty should "fuck off home", adding that "she can't even speak English properly". --://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6274881.stmAlso, after a similar comment by Goody, Lloyd laughed and said to Goody: "That was fucking fantastic, I loved it' I think she should fuck off home." --://media.guardian.co.uk/site/story/0,,1993135,00.html?gusrc=rss&feed

Lloyd's aunt directly accused her of racism, adding "It was disgusting the way Danielle treated Shilpa. I'm surprised Big Brother didn't throw her out of the house." --://www.24dash.com/showbiz_slapdash/15620.htm

Dirk Benedict

Dirk Benedict (born March 1, 1945) is an American actor who played Face in The A-Team and Starbuck in the original Battlestar Galactica. Dirk made a unique entrance to the house by arriving via (a replica of) The A-Team van, smoking a cigar and with the theme tune playing in the background. A memorable moment occurred a few minutes after he arrived in the house, when a drunk Donny said "It's Dirk fucking Benedict", to which Dirk responded "I seldom use my middle name". Dirk made no secret of his attraction to Shilpa, even saying that he would marry her in a moment, although his attention and flirting with her was light hearted and not excessive. On Day 2 a comic feel surrounded Dirk as Shilpa learned to pronounce his name. --://www.channel4.com/entertainment/tv/microsites/B/bb7_celebrity/news/newsstory.jsp?id=1054&articleMask=1 Dirk finished third.

Despite his obvious affection for Shilpa, Dirk Benefict has been erroniusly accused of racism and will be interviewed by the police. Newspaper reports have quoted him as saying, "There are millions of Indians. Millions. And they’re breeding fast. They are having four or five kids when the Brits are having one. The average British woman has 1.3 children and the Indians are having 3.5. The Brits, the natural-born, are already in a minority. There will be a Nehru as Prime Minister soon.” --://www.dailystar.co.uk/news_detail

Donny Tourette

Donny Tourette is the lead singer of Towers of London, a punk rock band from London. He staggered into the house in a drunken state and instantly breached Big Brother rules when his stash of alcohol was removed from his suitcase.

She also had a brief solo career before pursuing a career in dog breeding. O'Meara was a servant during the 'Master and Servant' task. She has come in for criticism for her ganging up with Jade Goody, Danielle Lloyd, and others on fellow housemate Shilpa Shetty, who has been subjected to bullying in the house, despite maintaining that she and Shetty are friends. After a particularly nasty verbal attack on Shilpa by Jade, witnessed by a giggling Jo and Danielle, Jo said that the verbal attack had made her day and that she felt a lot better for it. She was evicted on Day 24, along with Cleo. When betting opened,Jo O'Mera was favourite to win.

Notes.

When Jade, Jack, and Jackiey entered the house they became "masters" along with Jermaine, Ken, and Shilpa. The other eight housemates were chosen to be their "servants" and moved to the House Next Door. It was revealed that the masters are automatically nominated for eviction in which the viewers are to vote which housemates to save, rather than evicted. Therefore, the housemate with the least number of votes is evicted. Donny, who was originally a servant, left the house on Day 3. On Day 5, Ken voluntarily left after being involved in arguments with housemates.

Carole and Cleo were banned from nominating as a punishment for discussing nominations earlier. Additionally, housemates had to choose one of them to face the public vote. "[--://bigbrother.digitalspy.co.uk/article/ds11203.html Housemates to nominate today]", Digital Spy. URL last accessed 2007-01-11. They chose Carole.

URL last accessed 2007-01-11. On Day 10, Leo escaped the house.^[3]

The nominations were cast on Day 15 and announced on Day 16. The voting package was delayed and only shown at the end of Big Brother's Big Mouth where it was also revealed that all Channel 4's profits for this vote will go to charity.

There was a double eviction on Day 24 and therefore the three or more housemates were placed up for the public vote rather than the two or more housemates. The voting lines originally opened on Day 22 but were reset on Day 23 due to an error which stated that viewers were to vote to save Shilpa when they were in fact voting to evict. Viewers who had voted before the lines were reset were offered a full refund with all unclaimed money and profits from the vote being donated to charity [--://www.channel4.com/entertainment/tv/microsites/B/bb7_celebrity/news/newsstory.jsp?id=1404&articleMask=1 Voting Reset & Refund Information] Channel Four's Official Big Brother Website.

There were no nominations in the final two days and instead the public were voting for the housemate they wished to win rather than evict. The housemates coming 5th and 6th were evicted together in a double eviction.

More than 45,000 complaints were received by broadcasting regulator Ofcom about racial bullying directed towards Indian housemate Shilpa Shetty by Jade Goody, Danielle Lloyd, Jack Tweed and Jo O'Meara.The accusations were based on the following actions:

During the conversation in the bedroom, Jade entered, sat in front of Danielle, blocking out Shilpa, and began doing makeup. As Shilpa left, Danielle told Jade that she "tried apologising to her". Later Danielle made an awkward attempt to apologize by saying "I feel really bad, I feel disgusted with myself the way I've treated you and the way I've acted, because I'm not like that, Shilpa, really," ... "And you can even cook me curry and you can pick the onions out with your fingers." --://www.itv.com/news/entertainment_be089c36590483d4bc15dfae578c4e7b.html

Jade referred to Shilpa as, among other things, 'Shilpa Popadom', 'Shilpa Durupa' and 'Shilpa Fuckawala'. She later said she had done this with no intention of racism. Commenting on this in the Diary Room, she apologised if her actions had offended anybody

Social commentator and former Celebrity Big Brother contestant Germaine Greer believes that the racial overtones are actually examples of stupidity .--://media.guardian.co.uk/site/story/0,,1992029,00.html She wrote "I can switch Shilpa off. The people in the house with her haven't got that option. The problem is that most of the housemates are too dim to convey what a pain in the ass Shilpa is without appearing to persecute her!"< As a result of the controversy, some Asian journalists have suggested that Goody has opened a wider racism debate within UK society. Tommy Nagra, ex-head of the BBC's Asian programming unit, has said that the subsequent public debate surrounding Goody's, Danielle Lloyd's and Jo O'Meara's actions "can only be a positive thing". Their behaviour created an international outcry gaining heavy coverage in the Indian media. Gordon Brown, the British Chancellor of the Exchequer visiting India at the time, condemned the programme on the grounds that he was against anything which might damage the perception that Britain is a country of tolerance. {{cite news --://media.guardian.co.uk/site/story/0,,1992450,00.html In a statement on 17 January, Channel 4 defended the programme against charges "of overt racism or racial abuse". --://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6272585.stmTo date there has been no overt racial abuse or racist behaviour directed against Shilpa Shetty within the Big Brother house.

On 1 February, several British media outlets began reporting additional claims that Shilpa had in fact been called a "fucking Paki" by a housemate, although it is unclear whether this is believed to be the aforementioned incident involving Jack. In another instance, Shilpa is reported to have been the subject of a 'limerick', improvised by one of the housemates, which began "there was a young girl from Bombay" and ended "this house was happy, until we got that fucking Paki". These claims allegedly come from an Endemol employee who was interviewed the previous day by Hertfordshire police and who provided them with a hand-written "production running-order", intended for Dermot O'Leary, the back of which details these episodes as well as noting "there ARE dodgy clips, we are fucked". Police were said to have demanded unedited footage of these alleged incidents from Endemol, who confidently denied the claims and refused to hand over any footage. --://www.metro.co.uk/fame/article.html?in_article_id=35543&in_page_id=7 --://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,11049-2007050346,00.html

The CPS have now decided not to bring criminal charges against anyone nor to pursue unbroadcast footage through the courts. The informant has not come forward to have his/her claims tested.

A Channel 4 spokeswoman admitted Big Brother had intervened in the latest row - but only to make contestants "realise that what they have said has been misconstrued in the house". The idea, she said, was to allow the housemates "to explain themselves" to their fellow contestants. --://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6279363.stm This was followed by a series of apologies by the housemates to Shilpa and a declaration by her that she did not believe Jade was racist. Also Jade said inside the house before she left: "I know why there's no noise." When Shilpa asked "Why?" Jade replied: "I know, but I can't tell you. In an interview with the Daily Star, Jade admitted that, during her final hours in the Channel 4 house, Big Brother had revealed that her abuse of Shilpa had ruined her own "girl-next-door" image. --://www.dailystar.co.uk/news_detail_1079.html

Post incident reaction

Trevor Phillips, Chair of the Commission for Equality and Human Rights, said "What we are seeing is a noxious brew of old-fashioned class conflict, straightforward bullying, ignorance and quite vicious racial bigotry. It is outrageous, and it is unpleasant". --://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/showbiz/bigbrother.html It was also understood that the General public resented Shilpa being called a "tacky", which was racist; but regarded a clash of classes as inevitable due to Jade's humbler background and up bringing.

Jo became the fourth housemate to be evicted from the show, leaving the house on Friday January 26 in a surprise double eviction, along with fellow contestant Cleo Rocos.

In her eviction interview with Davina McCall Jo did not apologise for her comments and behaviour towards Shilpa Shetty, claiming she had done nothing wrong, a stance which she would continue to take in subsequent interviews. O'Meara also claimed that imitating her accent wasnt necessarily racist as Shilpa herself had laughed at Jo's imitation of her accent.

Her former housemate, Jade, disagreed with Jo's statement that she had done nothing wrong: "She's done everything wrong. She's made big mistakes;" and Jo's sister Julie admitted: "Jo should be very disappointed with herself." --://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,11049-2007040507,00.html

In a subsequent interview with GMTV which aired on Tuesday January 30, 2007 O'Meara apologised for her behaviour, but denied that she had been a bully or a racist while in the house, "I couldn't use those words. My cousins are actually of a different race and to use those sort of words, it would make me sick. I haven't got a racist bone in my body and I'm not a bully". She blamed poor editing by the show's producers (although this claim is undermined by the fact that the show was shown as a live feed on sister channel E4) and misquotation in interviews by national newspapers (especially the Mirror article) following the Celebrity Big Brother final, for contributing to her already-ruined image. She revealed she has not returned home due to unspecified death threats and concerns over her safety and was suffering from nervous exhaustion. She also revealed that her reason for entering the house was to help save her home, which had been threatened with repossession. --://www.gm.tv/index.cfm?articleid=24381.

In February 2007, the News of the World reported that O'Meara attempted to commit suicide and was "rushed to hospital" by friends. --://bigbrother.digitalspy.co.uk/article/ds12298.html. In an interview with Heat magazine (3-9 March 2007) she denied any intention to commit suicide as it would hurt her family but admitted heavy weight loss due to stress. She was also reported to be facing bankruptcy after her home was remortgaged for £200,000 without her knowledge and £200,000 went missing from her savings after apparently being a victim of a con scam. Media reports at the time suggested her house was in imminent danger of being repossessed. --://www.entertainmentwise.com/news?id=28451 --://www.pr-inside.com/s-club-star-victim-of-pound-r56273.htm A newspaper interview made before Celebrity Big Brother, from November 2006, revealed Danielle Lloyd's anti-immigration views: "If I was (a politician), I'd get more people into work and stop people coming into the country. There's so many people who come into England because they know they can get benefits. People who already live here should get the jobs".

Currently her own reaction appears to be open to further question. Whereas her fellow Housemate, Jade Goody, had to face the consequences of her actions, Danielle, with support from newspapers such as the Daily Star, has done what some pundits predicted Jade would do: two days after her eviction she told the Daily Star that she was bullied as a child, described how this impacted on her adult life, and also revealed that she and Jade were no longer friends.

On 19 January, Goody was evicted from the Big Brother house when she received 82% of the vote. It has been alleged that Channel 4, in contradiction with their own rules (which have been changed to include extended rules against racism) , told Goody hours before her eviction that her behaviour within the house had damaged her 'girl next door' reputation.^[4] Channel 4 at first denied this was the case,^[5] but later statements and Ofcom's report reveal that interventions had occurred, but only to make contestants "realise that what they have said has been misconstrued in the house". The idea, a Channel 4 spokesman said, was to allow the housemates "to explain themselves" to their fellow inmates. --://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6279363.stm For the sake of Goody's personal security]] and state of mind, Big Brother makers Endemol banned crowds and press from gathering outside the house to greet Goody and cancelled a press conference with her. --://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6277875.stm

In an interview following her eviction, Jade admitted--://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/jade1.shtml "My Race Slurs Were So Wrong and I Hate Myself". --://showbiz.sky.com/showbiz/article/0,,50001-1248278,00.html She also admited there was racial bullying in the Big Brother house, but stated that she was not a racist person--://showbiz.sky.com/showbiz/article/0,,50001-1248278,00.html Among Goody's comments were: "I've seen how she goes in and out of people's arseholes", --://www.ibnlive.com/videos/31466/slurs-against-shilpa-continue-on-show.html as well as suggesting Shetty "makes [her] skin crawl". --://showbiz.sky.com/showbiz/article/0,,50001-1247791,00.html During a back-biting moment "alone" with Danielle, Jade referred to Shilpa, whose surname she did not know, as 'Shilpa Daroopa, Shilpa Fuckawala, Shilpa Poppadom' and later imitated her Indian accent. --://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/entertainment/filmandtv/s/233/233670_celeb_bb_jade_calls_housemate_shilpa_poppadom.html

PR Guru Max Clifford, who has since been hired by Shilpa, stated that Goody now faces an "uphill struggle" to rescue her career, and that "Ironically, the programme that made her could be the programme that breaks her." An editorial in tabloid newspaper The Sun said Goody's previous image was "a meticulously manufactured lie. [Goody] had shown herself to be a vile, pig-ignorant, racist bully consumed by envy." --://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,31-2007030287,00.html. Columnist and TV Presenter Lorraine Kelly said she hoped Goody would "now disappear into obscurity. There really has to be an end to the celebration of stupidity and ignorance."^[6] Caitlin Moran, writing in The Times, described Jade Goody as "Britain's pet chav".

Mayor of London Ken Livingstone told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: "I think everyone is delighted that we got the result we did last night. Otherwise the image of Britain across India, which is the second-biggest investor in London after America now, would have been really damaged and it would have done a lot of harm to people's jobs."^[6]

Goody met with her PR and agent before being briefed on questions for her interview with BB host Davina McCall.

Goody said she needed psychological help and that she would only have herself to blame if it spelt the end of her career.title

In all of her post Celebrity Big Brother interviews, Goody has promised to donate her £50,000 fee from CBB and her £50,000 interview fee from the News of the World plus any other fees gained as a result of CBB to charity causes nominated by her and Shetty. She reportedly explained, "I don't want to make a penny from this. I don't want it. I don't want money from something that is wrong. I'm going to give it all to charity One tabloid newspaper reported that Goody's agent John Noel (also the agent of Davina McCall, the Big Brother presenter--://www.sundaymirror.co.uk/news/tm_headline=the-piggy-bank&method=full&objectid=18508213&siteid=62484-name_page.html planned to sign up Shetty for deals worth over £1 million when she left the BB house.

The office took out a full-page advertisement in British newspapers during the Big Brother furore "welcoming" her to India to "experience" its "healing nature" and to "cleanse your stresses away."

As time progressed, the majority of media coverage on Goody became negative, although accusations of racism were superseded by those of bullying. An editorial published by The Daily Mirror on 18 January 2007 called Beauty V Bigot deplored what they referred to as "disgraceful racist bullying of Big Brother's Shilpa Shetty" and criticised Channel 4 management for maintaining that there wasn't a racial element to the bullying.

In an interview with Commission for Equality and Human Rights chairman Trevor Phillips, broadcast on BBC One on 21 January, Channel 4 chairman Luke Johnson was held accountable for what Phillips termed as 'failing to deal properly with the crisis'. Phillips has suggested Johnson should "make clear that they got it wrong" and admit that "they intervened too little too late".

The row then escalated into an international diplomatic incident after a formal complaint from Indian Minister of State for External Affairs Anand Sharma lodged a complaint to British PM Tony Blair that threatened to sour relations and damage trade between the two countries.

Shilpa was then invited to meet with Queen Elizabeth II at Marlborough House in London in March 2007. During an interview on This Morning, Shetty confirmed that she had been asked to take the role of Preeti Choraria's sister in EastEnders. Shilpa said that after much thought she would be unable to take the role as it would mean all her other arrangements would have to go on hold.

She was also the subject of a Sky One documentary entitled "The Real Shilpa Shetty", which was produced by British television production company Twofour. The large number of commercial offers that Shilpa received after winning Celebrity Big Brother themselves became reason for controversy with an increasing number of accusations about her riding the 'racism' wave to commercial gain.

Jade Goody

In an exclusive interview with the News of the World newspaper, Jade apologised for her behaviour. She admitted that her comments to Shilpa could be seen to be racist. In a tearful state on a video posted on the newspaper's website, Goody said:

Police investigation as Ofcom Report confirms Racism in Celebrity Big Brother 2007

According to the BBC Shetty confided in fellow housemate Cleo Rocos that she feared the arguments between Goody, O'Meara, Lloyd and herself was the result of her race. After being told by Cleo that this was unlikely, Shilpa retorted by saying "It is, I'm telling you". Shilpa did not lodge an official complaint of racist behaviour to Big Brother.^[10] Yet Shetty's admission has forced police to investigate whether or not to classify her treatment as 'racial hatred' under Part III of the Public Order Act 1986.

Hertfordshire police said in a statement that it was

We will continue to liaise with Ofcom and with Endemol, whom we have strongly encouraged to ensure that any form of behaviour that could raise similar concerns, does not occur.

The apparent criteria

--82.27.16.12 (talk) 16:56, 21 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

By appearance only

The usual criteria involved over the years to define people by common pseudo-scientific (non-scientific) list of physical features. The belief was those who looked alike were derived from a common ancestor (like the children of a big family looking like their 2 common parents). In Europe the people of the World divided in to 4 or in some cases 5 categories, based on skin colour and to a degree the shape of the face as well. The categories were as follows, by Victorian times-

White skinned= White/European (eg- English, Russians and Dutch).
Suntanned/Olive skinned= Mediterranean European (eg- Italians and Maltese) and Middle Eastern (eg-Arabs and Afghans).
Yellow skinned and slant eyed= Orientals (eg- Apache Amerindians, Chinese and Japanese).
Brown skinned= Indic/Indian (eg- Indian and Pakistani).
Black skinned and flat nosed= Black/Negroid/Negro (eg- South African Zulus, Barbadians and Nigerian Yorubas).

- A supposed 'Turkish' nose and a 'Jewish' nose could be theoretically taken as proof of Turkish or Jewish ancestral roots. The Anti-Semitic Nazis attitude towards identifying Jews relied on this pseudo-science! The Nazis also persecuted the Gypsies, who were considered part of the 'Indic' race.

- The Inuit of the Arctic, Scandinavia's Sami/Lapps, Negritos , Africa's Bushmen and Aborigines of Australia were generally thought of as isolated and unrelated groups that had divided off early humans much earlier on in evaluation.

By about the First World War the scientifically inclined Europeans were sub-dividing the 'White race' in to 3 or 4 supposed sub-races, which were-

Blond hair, white skinned, blue or grey eyes= Aryans/Nordic (eg- Swedish and Dutch)
Dark haired/ white skinned, brown eyed= Alpine (eg- Russians, Romanians, English and Welsh).
Dark haired, suntanned/olive skinned, brown eyed, normal nose= Mediterranean European (eg- Italians and Maltese). The Middle East was said to have bigger noses than Mediterranean people.
Red hair, suntanned/olive or white skinned, brown or green eyes= Anglo-Celtic/Gaelic (eg- Scots, Irish and Dutch.

There was much prejudice based upon this perception of the world as the Europeans and Orientals both regarded them selves as superior to the other skin colours. This all lead to racism, a non-scientific theory, or ideology, that a particular race had become superior or inferior to another via natural selection. It advocated that in the races that make up the human race, there are deep, biologically determined differences, which should not be crossed, because, it is "extremely undesirable. It also states races should live separately and not intermarry. A supporter of racism is called a racist. These attitudes in turn created the horrors of African slavery, Apartheid, the Jim Crow laws, Nazism and Japanese imperialism.

The mid 20th century racial classification by American anthropologist Carleton S. Coon, divided humanity into five races:

Caucasoid (White) race
Negroid (Black) race
Capoid (Bushmen/Hottentots) race
Mongoloid (Oriental/ Amerindian) race
Australoid (Australian Aborigine and Papuan) race

In his landmark book The Races of Europe, Coon defined the Caucasian Race as encompassing the regions of Europe, Central Asia, South Asia, the Middle East, North Africa, and Northeast Africa.^[12] His work drew some charges of obsolete thinking or outright racism from a few critics, but some of the terminology he employed continues to be used even today, although the "-oid" suffixes now have in part taken on negative connotations.^[13]

In the 21st-Century, Coon's role came under further critical scrutiny when Prof. John P Jackon Jr, noted that the American Coon, "actively aided the segregationist cause in violation of his own standards for scientific objectivity."^[14].

In the late 18th century, Europeans began using the term Aryan to refer to the original prehistoric Proto-Indo-Europeans and their descendants up to the present day (i.e., the Indo-European peoples--those Caucasians who are speak the Indo-European languages). It was also assumed at the time, that, Aryans were a naturally culturally superior people. By the late 19th century, some Europeans began to use the name Aryan for only the Nordic peoples of Europe (one branch of the Indo-European peoples), as a "pure," "noble" and racially "superior" race they claimed were descended from the original Aryan tribes. The theory that the Aryans first came from Alpine Europe became especially popular in Germany and to a lesser degree in Austria, Switzerland and Hungary.

There was much prejudice based upon this perception of the world as the Europeans and Orientals both regarded them selves as superior to the other skin colours, which lead to the horrors of African slavery, Apartheid, the Jim Crow Laws, Nazism and Japanese imperialism. The accidental misinterpretation of the works of Charles Darwin (known as Darwinism) only helped to fuel the non-scientific opinions of 'race' and 'racial superiority'.

Genetics and haplogroups

In human genetics (the study of DNA in different living things), the haplogroups most commonly studied are Y-chromosome (Y-DNA) haplogroups and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroups, both of which can be used to define the 'genetic populations'.

In human genetics, the haplogroups most commonly studied are Y-chromosome (Y-DNA) haplogroups and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroups, both of which can be used to define genetic populations. Y-DNA is passed solely along the patrilineal line, from father to son, while mtDNA is passed down the matrilineal line, from mother to daughter. In theory the children of even a big family all share the DNA of their 2 common parents.

All of these DNA haplogroup molecules are part of the bigger ancestral haplogroup, but at some point in the past a mutation occurred in the ancestral molecule, mutation A, which produced a new lineage this is haplogroup A and is defined by it's mutation as mutation A. At some more recent point in the past, a new mutation, mutation B, occurred in a person carrying haplogroup A; mutation B defined haplogroup B. Haplogroup B is a subgroup, or subclade of haplogroup A; both haplogroups A and B are subgroups (subclades) of the ancestral haplogroup and so on.

For example- Korean males display a 35% frequency of the Haplogroup O2b1* subclade and a lower frequency of Haplogroup O3 and Haplogroup C3. Haplogroup C4 is the predominant male lineage among the indigenous Australians.

Theoretically, Genetic drift is the random change in gene frequencies between generations, but, a few individuals may leave behind more descendants and thus genes than other individuals. The genes of the next generation will be the genes of these “lucky” individuals' children, not necessarily the healthier or “better” individuals' children.

Social Darwinism, intelligence (IQ) and race

Social Darwinism' refers to various ideologies based on a concept that competition is active among all individuals, or even whole nations as social evolution in human societies.^[15]

It is a social adaptation of the theory of natural selection as first invented by Charles Darwin. Natural selection explains success in various animal populations as the outcome of competition between any individual organisms for limited resources popularly known as "survival of the fittest", a term first used by either Herbert Spencer, or Andrew Carnegie.

Fascist movements have commonly held social darwinist views of nations, races, and societies.^[16] Italian Fascist Alfredo Rocco shortly after World War I claimed that conflict was inevitable in society:

Conflict is in fact the basic law of life in all social organisms, as it is of all biological ones; societies are formed, gain strength, and move forwards through conflict; the healthiest and most vital of them assert themselves against the weakest and less well adapted through conflict; the natural evolution of nations and races takes place through conflict. Alfredo Rocco^[17]

Nazi Germany, the Nazis utilized social Darwinism to promote their racialist concept of the German nation was part of the Aryan race and believed in the competition of races. ^[18] The Nazis tried to strengthen the ‘Aryan race’ in Germany by murdering those they regarded as weaker, like Jews, Slavs, Gypsies and disabled people.

It was believed until recently that race and IQ were connected. The fact that environment, such as schooling, food content and alcohol consumption/boozing has a significant effect on IQ undermines the case for the use of IQ data as a source of genetic information ^[19]^[20] ^[19]^[20].

This prejudice was partially applied in Europe and the USA to both- the Irish, Australian Aborigines, Native American Indians, Blacks, Gypsies, Albanians, Italians, Turkish Cypriots, Slavic Russians and Russia's Chechens tribes.

Racism, colonialism and African slavery

When Europeans came to America, they killed thousands of Native Americans and when the European settlers got to Australia, they started killing of large numbers of Aborigines. In both cases, they regarded the native people as predestined to be inferior and not worth helping. This view was based on the Europeans' opinions on Darwinism and how it could be used to judge the value of the native peoples. With the birth of their empires, many other native tribes suffered in Sub-Saharan Africa, Canada, New Zealand, China, Pakistan, Bangladesh and India.

a Relatively small numbers of White settlers and British (then including Irish) convicts attacked and removed Aboriginal populations from the South Eastern parts of Australia ^[21] . Tasmanian Aboriginals in particular suffered, most of them on the Island being killed by settlers or disease. The complete extermination of the Tasmanian Aboriginal population was achieved on the orders of the now 'criminal against humanity' Lt Governor George Arthur in 1830 ^[22]. His actions would now be called a crime against humanity!

The Atlantic slave trade peaked in the late 18th century, when the largest number of slaves were captured on expeditions into the interior of West Africa. These expeditions were typically carried out by people from the stronger African kingdoms like the Yoruba, Kingdom of Benin and Ashanti Confederacy, against weaker African tribes and peoples. Europeans rarely entered the interior of Africa, due to fear of disease and moreover fierce African resistance.^[23]^[24]. Many millions of Africans were killed while they were held as prisoners or as slaves by the Europeans and Arabs. The African-American people and some others call this "The Black Holocaust".

Japan also held similar beliefs about Chinese and Koreans in their colonies.

Racism in World war 2

The 'Aryan nations'.

For the main articles see- Nazi Germany and Austrofascism.

Alleged scientific findings of racial differences were used by Nazi Germany to justify the racialist policy with its concept of "Großdeutschland" (Greater Germany) and the Nordic racecial idea. The Nazis attitude towards the Jews were Anti-Semitic and falsely blamed them for Germany's defeat in World War I and the Great Depression. The Nazis and some of their anti-Semitic allies, like Hungary, committed genocide against the Jews during the Holocaust of World War II. Some of the Hungarian native Magyars matched the Nazi racial ideal and were used as proof that Hungary was a Teutonic and Aryan nation, like Germany, Sweden, etc.

The Wola massacre (Polish: Rzeź Woli, "Wola slaughter") of August, 1944 atWola in Warsaw), was the scene of the largest single massacre in the history of Poland. According to different sources, some 40,000^[25] to 100,000^[26] Polish civilians and POWs were killed by the German troops.

File:Nazi german atrocities.jpg

The execution of supposedly 'sub-human' Soviet prisoners of war by German military personnel.

About 12 million, most of whom were Eastern Europeans, were employed in the German war economy as forced labor in Germany during World War II.^[27]. The Nazis regarded Slavs as disposable slave labour and "cattle on two legs", which were only of being worked to death if not shot where they stood. The anti-Semitic Krupki massacre, in Byelorussia serves as an example of how Germany treated it's racial enemies.

James Schwarzenbach (1911-1994) was a far-right and antisemitic Swiss politician, in the 1970s head of the short-lived Republican Party of Switzerland He was member of the Swiss National Council representing the Nationale Aktion in the legislature 1967-1971. Schwarzenbach's Republican Party originated as a split off the Nationale Aktion in 1971, with which it merged once again in 1990, into the neo-fascist Swiss Democrats. The SD is amongst both the oldest the lest successful of Europe's far right parties.

Both Aryanism and the Aryan belt concept still linger on among some parts Germany and Austria. These attitudes are prevalent in parts of the former East Germany and in Austria. Turkish and Angolan migrant labours have been attacked in some formerly East German towns in the 1990‘s. Switzerland has rejected it's WW2 flirting with the far right. The German National Democratic Party and Swedish National Democrats are a modern example of this. They also play on the partly true, but over stated, claims that 'to many' foreigners are 'flooding' into their countries. Both parties are affiliated to the U.K.'s British National Party.

For the main article see- Sweden during World War II.

Sweden was another country that once considered it's self to be part of the 'Aryan belt' and of Aryan racial stock. The most virulent form was in the form of a informal breading program to reduce more 'Aryans' and less 'Laps', along with some intermittent and/or indirect help for Nazi Germany during World War 2. While it became a haven for refugees from Norden and the Baltic states, and Swedes were involved in rescuing Scandinavian victims of internment camps." --- Nordstrom, p. 318: "By late 1943 Sweden was a haven for some 11,000 refugees from Denmark, including over 7,000 Danish Jews, and about 30,000 Norwegians."---> Nevertheless, internal and external critics have argued that Sweden could have done more to resist the Nazi war effort, even if risking occupation.^[28]. Sweden had to play a careful balancing game between the opposing forces throughout the war.

175px|thumb|right|The Nationaldemokraterna party logo.

The minor National Democrats (Nationaldemokraterna, ND) political party, formed by a faction of the Sweden Democrats in October 2001. The party describes itself as a democratic/ nationalist ("national democratic"), right-wing and ethnopluralist party.^[29] While many in the mainstream media have designated the party as xenophobic and/or racist^[30]^[31]^[32]^[33]^[34]^[35] the party has publicly rejected these descriptions as a smear.^[36]^[37] As far as can be told, it is vehemently anti-immigration, especially when concerning Blacks, hard-line Muslims and citizens of the C.I.S..

Nick Griffin of the British National Party visited Sweden whilst campaigning before the 2004 European Parliament election and gave the National Democrats his endorsement.

Eastern Europe

For the main article see- the Arrow Cross Party.

The banner of Hungary' far-right Arrow Cross Party.

Both the Nazis and Hungary's Arrow Cross Party were virulently anti-Semitic and believed the Jews were naturally criminals and workshy. During the war criminal Ferenc Szálasi's, short rule in Hungary, thousands of Jews were murdered outright or sent to Auschwitz concentration camp. ^[38] ^[39]

Like Romania's Iron Guard, they also persecuted the Gypsies, who were considered part of the allegedly inferior and supposedly criminally inclined 'Indic' race. During World War II, the Nazis embarked on systematic attempt at genocide of the Romanies/Gypsies, known as the Porajmos.^[40] The Nazis also knowingly killed of thousands of Slavs, lesbians, Communists, liberals and gays.

Most Germans and Austrians are ashamed of this era, but Hungary has yet to really face up to what it did to the Roma as support for the fledgling Jobbik party rises.

For the main article see- the Iron Guard.

The Iron Guard was an antisemitic fascist movement and political party in Romania from 1927 to 1941. They despised and denounced both Jews, Hungarians and Gypsies. ^[41]

Some Romanian people still support these prejudice views even today.

For the main articles see- the Ustaše and Chetniks.

The Croat Ustaše and Serb Chetniks were racist militia in the former Yugoslavia. The Ustaše was openly pro-Nazi and anti-every one else. The Chetniks were Nazi sympathisers who hated Jews, Gypsies and Bosniaks. These sentiments tried to re-emerge during the break up of the former Yugoslavia during the 1990's.

Both Lithuania, the Czech republic, Slovakia, Byeloruss and the Ukraine once had a long standing hatred of Russians, Jews, Poles and Gypsies, which came to the for during Wold War 2. Events like the Lithuanian's anti-Semitic Kaunas massacre of October 29, 1941,.^[42], came as little surprise to the Western World. Pro-Nazi collaborator units like Lithuanian Security Police (Lietuvos saugumo policija), 30th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS (1st Belarussian) and 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS Galizien (1st Ukrainian) were actively supporting the German Wehrmacht in such act.

Some older Czechs still dislike Germans for what they did in World War 2 and Slovaks also vehemently dislike Hungarians and Gypsies, who they stereotype as naturally criminally inclined.

Italy

For the main article see- Italian Fascism.

Fascist Benito Mussolini, in a 1919 speech to denounce Soviet Russia, claimed that Jewish bankers in London and New York City were bound by the chains of race to Moscow, and claimed that 80 percent of the Soviet leaders were Jews.^[43]

Many Italian fascists held anti-Slavist views, especially against neighbouring Yugoslav nations, who they saw as being in competition with Italy, which had laid claim to the Yugoslavia's region of Dalmatia. ^[44]

Mussolini said Italy would get it's own way and was willing to use force to settle arguments. An early example was Italy's bombardment of the Greek island of Corfu in 1923. Soon after he succeeded in setting up a puppet regime in Albania and crushed a rebellion in Libya, which had been an Italian colony since 1912. Italy went on and brutally conquered Montenegro, Dalmatia, Albania and Greece in World War 2.

Italy, like Germany, Austria and Hungary mistakenly regarded all Slavs and Gypsies as stupid, racially inferior due to the effects of Social Darwinism and undeserving of there basic rights! Anti-Arab discrimination was also used in parts of Libya.

Some Italians still harbor preducses against Arab, Gypsy and Romanian immigrants today.

The Imperial Rule Assistance Association of Japan

For the main articles see- Imperial Way Faction and Hideki Tōjō.

The Imperial Rule Assistance Association (Taisei Yokusankai) was a coalition of fascist and nationalist political movements of Japan such as the Imperial Way Faction (Kōdōha) and the Society of the East (Tōhōkai). It was formed under the guidance of Japanese Prime Minister Fumimaro Konoe ^[45]^[46] Prior to creation of the IRAA, Konoe had already effectively nationalized strategic industries, the news media, and labour unions, in preparation for total war with China. Japan needed more land, minerals and colonies, so they annexed Korea, Manchuria and part of China. When Konoe's hard line successor, the war criminal Hideki Tōjō took over the IRAA he attempted to establish himself as the absolute leader, or Shogun, of Japan, under the Emperor of Japan.^[45]^[46]. The Japanese regarded the Chines, Koreans and Europeans as an inferior race that should be crushed and exploited. The Japanese brought much suffering to China in World War 2 and massacred about 15,000,000 between 1937 and 1945.

The Japanese prisoner-of-war camps of World War 2, many of which were used as labour camps, had alarmingly high death rates. The International Military Tribunal for the Far East found the death rate of Western prisoners was 27.1 percent (for American POWs, 37 percent),^[47] seven times that of POWs under the Germans and Italians^[48] . The death rate among Chinese POWs was much larger due to the abuse they received at the hands of their captors after a directive ratified on August 5, 1937 by emporor[Hirohito]] declared that the Chinese were no longer protected under international law.^[49] About 10 million Chinese were also mobilized by theJapanese army and the East Asia Development Board for slave labor in Manchukuo and north China.^[50]

Many Japanese still believe that they did not commit as many massacres as the Western World and China said they did.

Modern and recent racist ideologies

The U.K. and Ireland

Racism in the U.K. and Ireland of Jews, Gypsies and minorities like the various Northern Irish factions during The Troubles. The original "An Englishman, an Irishman and a Scotsman" jokes and "Irish jokes" are yet another form of English nationalist stereotyping the Gaelic people and culture. The modern Irish versions are just humours quips about the English, Scots and Kerrymen (people from County Kerry in Ireland.).

As the countries became independent after the 1950's, many migrated to the U.K. and France, but were decremented against. Some British cafes and hotels would not welcome in Caribbean guests. Since the 1960's, India, Pakistani and Bangladeshi people have moved to the U.K. and were victimised and 'Paki-bashed'.

The NF had penetrated British police force as well as society in general. The Broadwater Farm riot occurred around the Broadwater Farm area of Tottenham, North London on 6 October 1985. Substantial damage was caused and a police officer, PC Keith Blakelock, was murdered after the death of Cynthia Jarrett. This lead to the removal of some overtly racist offices and the reforming of policing in the U.K.

The Dewsbury riot of 1989 was a minor clash between activists of the British National Party and local South Asian youths.^[51] Riot police were used in controlling the events, so as to stop a repeat of incidents like Broadwater Farm riot .

The horror of 9/11, 2001, has heightened the British fears about Islam and Arabs in general. Polish and Brazilian migrant labours are also discriminated against in some places. Racist parties like the U.K.'s British National Party and National Front trade on these fears to get votes.

France

Racism in France was usually about limiting the rights of Jews, Gypsies and minorities like the French Basques; as well as a nascent fear of Germans after the horrors of World War 1. Since Algerian independence the French made Arabs feel unwelcome in some French towns as well. The horror of 9/11, 2001, has heightened the French fears about Islam and Arabs in general.

Recently Inter-ethnic riots like at Roquetas de Mar in Almeria, during 2008 saw Senegalese and Roma (Gypsy) people fight it out. ^[52] The Perpignan riot of 2005 ^[53] were between North African and Roma communities after after a man of North African descent was shot dead by a Roma man.

France now faces its own upswing in nationalist and fascist sentiments, mainly due to the growing Arab communities in some towns and fears emanating from the Algerian civil war of the 1990's. The Front National has capitalized on both this and France's growing Euro-scepticism over resent years. The party is affiliated to the U.K.'s British National Party.

Belgium and the Netherlands

Native Congo Free State labourers who failed to meet rubber collection quotas were often punished by having their hands cut off.

Racism amongst Belgians has usually been aimed either between Flanders and Wallonia or of an anti-Semitic nature, but in recent years become a more generalised problem, with a particular emphasis on Islamophobic.

Belgian brutality in their former colony of the Congo Free State ^[54]^[55], now the DRC, is a well documented fact as is their poor attitude toward citizens of that country. Up to 8 million of the estimated 16 million native inhabitants died between 1885 and 1908 ^[56] According to the former British diplomat Roger Casement, this depopulation had four main causes: "indiscriminate war", starvation, reduction of births and diseases.^[57] Sleeping sickness ravaged the country and must also be taken into account for the dramatic decrease in population.

The anti-Semitic fascists of the Walloon Rexist party (it was officially called Christus Rex and founded in 1930, by the Walloon, Léon Degrelle) and Flemish Flemish National Union, (founded by Staf de Clercq on October 8, 1933) were active in the country during World War II. Racist parties like the Belgian's Vlaams Blok (now called the Vlaams Belang) trade on these fears and age old inter-Belgian animosities to get votes.

thumb|125px|right|The N.S.B.'s party flag.

The Fascist-come-Nazi National Socialist Movement in the Netherlands (Dutch: Nationaal-Socialistische Beweging in Nederland, NSB) was a Dutch fascist and later national socialist political party. The NSB did well during the 1930s and the only legal party in the Netherlands during most of the Second World War, after Germany had occupied the Low Countries.

Anti-Indonesian sentiments are now being roused in by similar parties, like the the Party for Freedom (Dutch: Partij voor de Vrijheid, PVV) in the Netherlands, which once ruled over Indonesia and has a large racially Malaccan Indonesian community in it.

Both V.B. and the P.V.V. want the Netherlands and the racially akin Belgian province of Flanders to merge in to one, united, irredentist land.

Poland

The Poles once had long standing hatred and xenophobic of Russians, Jews, Byelorussians, Ukranians, Jews and Gypsies, which came to the for during Wold War , in event such as Przytyk pogrom. Many Poles fearcly resent what the Russians did in the Cold War and the Germans did in World War 2. Anti-Semitism has some grassroots support in Poland.

Like in other nations across the world, there are several far-right organizations in Poland and public support of these parties is marginal.

The neo-fascist Polish Nationalist Union was one of the larger groups active in the early 1990s, The current major neo-fascist movement is the NOP under the leadership of Adam Gmurczyk. Tomaz Szczepanski founded the organization "Niklot" in 1998, promoting Slavic supremacy (a Slavic form of the Nazis' übermensch). Like the ultra-Catholic Radio Maryja station, they have anti-modernist, nationalist, anti-Gipsy and xenophobic program.^[58]

United States and Canada

A pro-segregation (segregation) sign on a restaurant in Lancaster, Ohio, in 1938. Obviously only Whites could eat there, whilst non-Whites were not welcomed!

American racism has been a major issue in the country since before its founding. Historically dominated by socially and ethnically diverse White settler society race in the United States as a concept became significant in relation to other groups. Generally racist attitudes in the country have been most onerously applied to Native Americans, African Americans and some "foreign-seeming" action against Mexican immigrants among others.

The Chinese, Japanese and Irish had trouble in America, during the 19th Century, but the Blacks fell foul of the Jim Crow Laws which once racially separated the racist parts of America between Blacks and Whites. These first emerged in the late 19th Century and lasted to the mid 1960's ^[59] and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

The cold blooded use of police brutality on Mr Rodney King by the LAPD in 1991 saw Los Angeles torn apart by several days of Black American versus White and Korean riots. The L.A.P.D. had a reputation befor then of having a heavy anti Black bias, as well as a reported dislike for Arabs. Thankfully this has all changed and any overt racists in the forces have been removed.

Mexicans ^[60] / ^[61] and Blacks ^[62] are still hated in parts of America, while the horror of 9/11, 2001, has heightened the American fears about Islam and Arabs in general.

Canada has also had a few anti-Chinese and anti-Native American riots in Victorian times and during the Great Depression, but now it's virtually died out in the much more tolerant modern state.

Africa

For the main artical see- The Apartheid system.

South African Apartheid laws were a system was used to deny many rights of Non-white people The laws allowed the white minority to keep the Black majority out of certain areas. Black people had to carry special papers (passes) or have permission to live and work in particular areas. Whites opposed intermarriage with non-whites and Coloured people were also discriminated against, but not as badly as the Non-whites. The Prohibition of Mixed Marriages Act of 1949 prohibited marriage between persons of different races and the Immorality Act of 1950 made sexual relations with a person of a different race a criminal offence ^[63]. The Blacks suffered greatly and were even banned from voteing at one point.

For the main article see the- Rwandan Genocide.

The Rwandan Genocide ^[64] of 1994 was the mass killing of hundreds of thousands of Rwanda's Tutsis and politically moderate Hutu by tribalist and ultimately racist, Hutus under the Hutu Power ideology. The Twa pygmies were also killed by both sides. Bantu Hutus and Nilotic Tutsis had hated each other for centuries, but had managed to co-exist until the Prussians colonised the various local countries. The Prussian authorities approved of social Darwinism and helped the Tutsis to rule over the Hutus. This only counted to foster the hatred that erupted in Rwandan and Burundi in the 1990's, which killed about 900,000 people ^[65]!

Anti-Chinese riots hit Lusaka, Zambia, in 2006 ^[66] and Maseru, Lethsotho in 2007 ^[67]. Most Africans fear the Chinese are trying to colonise Africa like the Europeans did in Victorian times. Chinese Neo-colonialism is a growing fear in both Africa and the Orient.

Abidjan in Ivory Coast were hit by the more exspeted Anti-white riots in 2004 ^[68]^[69]. The often brutal European colonial rule has left many bitter feelings in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Australia and New Zealand

Australia and New Zealand were also tainted with racism to. Asustralia has had a long traditional hatred of Orentals. The anti-Chinese demonstrations that took place in the Burrangong region, in New South Wales, Australia between 1860 and 1861. They lead to the Sinophobic Lambing Flat riots. They occurred on the goldfields at Spring Creek, Stoney Creek, Back Creek, Wombat, Blackguard Gully, Tipperary Gully, and Lambing Flat (now Young, New South Wales) In December 1920, Anti-Japanese and Indonesian (mainly from Kupang in Timor) communities took place in Broome, a town in northern Western Australia.

By the 21st century the situation had no improved much. The Redfern Riots on the evening of Saturday 14 February 2004 was an event in the inner Sydney suburb of Redfern sparked by the death of the Indigenous Australian teenager, Thomas 'TJ' Hickey, Indigenous Australian were until about the 1970's regarded as inferior people by most White Australians. The horror of 9/11 helped stoke the causes of the anti-Arab Cronulla riots of 2005 were a series of racially motivated mob confrontations which originated in and around Cronulla, a beachfront suburb of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Soon after the riot, ethnically motivated violent incidents occurred in several other Sydney suburbs. The Lebanese Australian and Egyptian Arabs were the primary targets. In 2009, Melbourne, Indian students protested against what they claimed were racist attacks by white youns, blocking streets in the city centre as they did so.

New Zealand has a smoldering dislike of Australians and Maori in some quarters. Bastion Point (Takaparawhau in Māori) is a coastal piece of land in Orakei, Auckland, New Zealand, overlooking the Waitemata Harbour. The area has significance in New Zealand history for its role in 1970s Māori protests against forced land alienation by non Māori New Zealanders.^[70] New Zealanders have until about the 1970's regarded Maori as an inferior people

Both Tonga and the Solomon Islands have also had anti-Chinese in recent years.

There is also a unrelated Bastion Point near Mallacoota, Victoria, Australia.

File:Riots in Dushanbe 1990.jpg

Dushanbe riots

The Uzbeks, Tajiks, Kyrgyz, Armenians and Meskhetian Turks have regularly clashed in the Fergana Valley, Central Asia. The rivalries between these nationally are as old as the pre-Soviet, states they emerged from. The Osh riots of 1990 were an ethnic conflict between Kyrgyz and Uzbeks that took place in in the city of Osh, that was then a part of the Kyrgyz Soviet Socialist Republic (Kyrgyz SSR).

The racist Dushanbe riots were an instance of anti-Armenian and anti-government unrest in Dushanbe, the capital of the Tajik SSR, from February 12–14, 1990.

The Burning of Jaffna library, in 1981 was an important event in the Sri Lankan civil war. An organized mob went on a rampage on the nights of May 31 to June 2, 1981, burning the Jaffna library in Jaffna. The Sinhalese and Tamils have had a long standing feud though out history over who was in charge of northern Sri Lanka, in particular, the Tamil dominated Jaffna peninsula.

For the main articles see- the May 1998 riots in Indonesia and the 1969 race riots of Singapore.

The May 1998 riots in Indonesia were a principal factor in the Fall of Suharto. They occurred in several parts of Indonesia, but most notably in the capital and largest city, Jakarta. The riots were triggered by economic problems like food shortages and mass unemployment in Indonesia.

It soon degenerated in to a Sinophobic pogrom by the ethically Malay against the Chinese people living in Indonesia.

Malaysia, Singapore and South Korea have also had anti-Chinese and Anti-Vietnamese riots over the years.

For the main articles see- the The Nanjing Anti-African protests, the 2008 Tibetan unrest, the July 2009 Ürümqi riots and the 2009 Shaoguan incident.

The Nanjing Anti-African protests protests were mass demonstrations and riots against African students in Nanjing, China, which lasted from December 1988, to the following January. The students were from China's former allies in Africa like Angola and Mozambique.

During 2008, many Tibetan students that had failed to except Tibet’s re-assimilation in to China, during the 1950’s, after about 200 years of intermittent independence, decided to riot on the anniversary of the Tibetan’s failed anti-Chinese rebellion. The riots were bloodily suppressed and defeated by a combination of Chinese riot police and troops in armoured cars. Most Chinese regarded Tibet as rightfully theirs and the Tibetan people as an inferior and disorderly people. Most Tibetans are kept off the social ladder as the region is developed for the benefit of ‘Greater China’.

By 2009, the Uyghur realised they were in virtually the same situation. The July 2009 Ürümqi riots were the final boiling over of simmering Uyghur versus Han Chinese that dated back to the province’s re-annexation after a brief spell of independence during and between the World Wars. The Chinese regard Uyghur as backward peasants and keep them on a lower level on the social ladder. Chinese media blamed ’criminal elements’ for the riot ^[71] broke out on 5 July 2009 in Ürümqi, the capital city of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, in northwestern China. Rioting on the first day involved at least 1,000 Uyghurs^[72]^[73]^[74] in a protest that escalated into attacks on Han people after confrontations with police.^[75]^[76] Police attempted to quell the rioters with tear gas, riot police and armoured vehicles by imposing a curfew in most urban areas. In total, officials said that 197 people died ^[77] with 1,721 others injured as hundreds of Han people clashed with both police and Uyghurs on 7 July ^[78]. Authorities also shut down Internet services and restricted cell phone services in Ürümqi for the night.^[79] ^[80] On 8 July, Chinese president Hu Jintao cut short his attendance of the 35th G8 summit and returned to China due to the situation in Xinjiang.

Macao and Hong Kong have also had Anti-Vietnamese riot over the years.

The new world attitude

With the revelations of what the Holocaust had done to it's victims and how the civil rights movement tried to liberate the Afro-Caribbeans from racist White supremacist rule in South Africa and the southern USA (eg-Mississippi and Alabama ), the old ideas about race were swept away along with the prejudices that followed in it's wake! Blacks could vote in South Africa after a 50 year ban and the word 'Nigger' fell out use.

In some cases positive discrimination, the ethnics 1st laws and "political correctness" have taken the situation to the opposite extreme, leading to accusations in the UK, USA and Australia of reverse racism, that is to say racism in favour, not against the ethnic minorities. Political correctness is a term applied to language, ideas, policies, or behaviour seen as seeking to minimize offence to gender, racial, cultural, disabled, aged or other identity groups. Conversely, the term "politically incorrect" is used to refer to language or ideas that may cause offense or that are unconstrained by orthodoxy or good manners (eg- racists and Islamophobics). An example of political correctness is the term House Negro is a racially pejorative term for a black person in a domestic job (hotel porter, waiter), comparing them to a Black servant employed in the house of a White master during slavery. Malcolm X where he explains that the slaves called "House Negroes" working in the house and "Field Negroes" laboured outside. Such terms are now considered politically incorrect and abhorrent.

Text of speech his : ^[81]

The United States is now a diverse country and in 2006, it became the third nation in world history to reach 300 million people. China and India each each got just over 1 billion people in them.^[82]^[83]

The spectacular growth of the Hispanic population through immigration from principally Mexico among other places combined with and generally high birth rates are noted as a partial factor for the USA's rising population in the last quarter-century. The 2000 census also found Native Americans/Amerindians at their highest population ever, 4.5 million, since the U.S was founded in 1776.^[84]

Brazil is also a racially diverse and multiracial country.^[85] Nowadays, most Brazilians classify themselves as being Whites, closely followed by the 'Brown group' (coloureds). Racial Intermarriage has been part of the country's history and most Brazilians can trace their origin to European, Amerindian, and African ancestors. The only real racial trouble comes in the fact that the Whites have a tendency of getting the better jobs and houses, whilst the Blacks have a tendency to be left back in the Favelas.
