Regardless of where you stand on the matter, you probably didn't know it, even though the article about it have been available online since August 2017. fox4kc.com/news/new-york-schools-drop-jingle-bells-song-over-historical-blackface-roots/There is a typo in the title of the article, though. It's "New York School" not "New York School s", only one school has done it yet. I have chosen, however, this site and this article, because it cuts straight to the matter, also gives link to the study in question. I'm certainly amused, as we, in Russia, also sung this song in our English classes in school. |

There's racist and there's racist. If you need a study to confirm it, maybe it's just a song of its era.
But I can understand not wanting to teach any children the "ten little n*gg*rs" song.
We have a Dutch translation as well I learned during my youth. Let that one die please

There's no racist content in the song, Jingle Bells. That it was originally sung by minstrels doesn't make the song itself racist. Personally, I like this version: Jingle Bells. Batman smells. Robin laid an egg. The Batmobile lost a wheel. And the Joker got away! Hey!
There's also Jingle Hell by Christopher Lee, which I paid money for.
Karl Marx was waaaaaaaay more racist than those minstrels.

So it's not a racist song, but it's made by racists.
I don't see people banning lightbulbs just because it was invented by a shitty person.

Once again the liberal mob tries to find problems with things and makes them racist!
i got one for you, brushing your teeth is now racist because it oppresses asian people, and it promotes asian genocide by making yellow teeth white.
i just made that up, but doesnt it sound convincing?

Math, time, roads, and PB&J are all racist too. But Google throwing resumes of people in the trash without even looking at their qualifications just because they happen to be white is totally not racist at all. Neither is race-swapping nearly every red-haired white character in most movies and shows nowadays. Hollywood, Netflix, etc. totally do not have a policy of gingercide.
