Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: This is just maddening Tommy Robinson, this one giving a
- 0:07Speaker 1: ted talk at Nottingham University on decolonizing the curriculum from
- 0:12Speaker 1: white European males missing the irony on being allowed to
- 0:16Speaker 1: speak in public will it's not allowed to show their hair.
- 0:21Speaker 1: These people need to leave, he says, that's what he thinks.
- 0:24Speaker 1: Let's hear what she has to say.
- 0:27Speaker 2: It isn't as simple as just reading a few Maya
- 0:29Speaker 2: Angelo poems during Black History Months. We have to fully
- 0:33Speaker 2: incorporate the work and ideas of people of color into
- 0:36Speaker 2: each aspect of the curriculum by rethinking the very foundations
- 0:40Speaker 2: of our education system to a point where it doesn't
- 0:43Speaker 2: feel performative but provides a beneficial insight. For example, at
- 0:49Speaker 2: Naseam Girl's High School, we've refined the English curriculum to
- 0:52Speaker 2: provide students with a more representative approach to the literature
- 0:56Speaker 2: they study. We've replaced controversial books by white male author
- 1:00Speaker 2: such as A Mice and Man and the Boy in
- 1:02Speaker 2: the Stripe.
- 1:02Speaker 1: Pajamas controversial books by white men, white men. That's racist.
- 1:09Speaker 1: What she just said is racist. She's just revealed herself
- 1:13Speaker 1: as a hateful racist. Decolonizing the UK What does that?
- 1:18Speaker 2: What?
- 1:19Speaker 1: What does that mean exactly? I mean the the British,
- 1:23Speaker 1: the English are the indigenous people of England. How does that?
- 1:28Speaker 1: How does this the concept of decolonizing England, say, or Scotland,
- 1:33Speaker 1: which is right now, I think ninety five percent white,
- 1:37Speaker 1: ninety five percent Scottish. How does that concept make any
- 1:40Speaker 1: sense whatsoever? Decolonizing it? You're what she is saying, which
- 1:44Speaker 1: is I guess is we're used to now leftists accusing
- 1:48Speaker 1: you of doing what they are doing. Right, But isn't
- 1:52Speaker 1: what she's saying actually colonizing. Isn't she doing the colonizing
- 1:57Speaker 1: because you know, the Scots, the well, the English, they're
- 2:01Speaker 1: the indigenous people of that island. They don't need decolonizing
- 2:06Speaker 1: because they're not colonized. It seems like she's the one
- 2:09Speaker 1: doing the colonizing. They always accuse you, no matter how
- 2:13Speaker 1: ludicrous it is, of doing what they're doing. It's like
- 2:16Speaker 1: a golden rule. It's like an iron rule for these
- 2:19Speaker 1: woke leftist, Marxist crazy people.
- 2:22Speaker 2: With pieces of literature that celebrate a diverse array of
- 2:26Speaker 2: authors and themes, such as The Bone, Sparrow and the Alchemist.
- 2:31Speaker 2: We've also changed the language we use when teaching. Instead
- 2:34Speaker 2: of referring to specific poems as poetry from other cultures,
- 2:39Speaker 2: the module has been renamed to Powerful Voices so as
- 2:42Speaker 2: to avoid othering certain cultures and students and to eventually
- 2:46Speaker 2: break down the Eurocentric view on literature.
- 2:50Speaker 1: Eurocentric view on literature in Europe. You're colonizing. You're colonizing.
- 2:57Speaker 1: The Europeans are the indigenous people of Europe. They don't
- 3:01Speaker 1: need to be decolonized from their themselves. That doesn't even
- 3:04Speaker 1: make any fucking sense.
- 3:06Speaker 2: However, change needs to be made on a wider national
- 3:11Speaker 2: scale to provide students across the country with a more
- 3:15Speaker 2: rounded view of society we live in. When we learn
- 3:18Speaker 2: about British history, we'd also learn about the realities of
- 3:21Speaker 2: people living under the British Empire instead of just the
- 3:25Speaker 2: European languages. That'd be the option to learn Mandarin, Arabic
- 3:28Speaker 2: and Hindi.
- 3:30Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think she really wants to teach the
- 3:33Speaker 1: history of people living under the British Empire, right. Probably
- 3:38Speaker 1: leave up the whole you know, ending slavery thing throughout
- 3:41Speaker 1: the Empire and the places where it existed long before,
- 3:45Speaker 1: long before any Englishman ever set foot there. Probably leave
- 3:49Speaker 1: that part out.
- 3:50Speaker 2: And the final step is to adapt. The whole point
- 3:54Speaker 2: of decolonizing the curriculum is to make the outlooks and
- 3:57Speaker 2: experiences we study.
- 3:59Speaker 1: Moy, How does that make any fucking sense. You're in
- 4:02Speaker 1: the UK. You're in the UK. They don't need decolonizing.
- 4:07Speaker 1: They're the people, they're the indigenous people of the UK.
- 4:10Speaker 1: They don't need decolonizing. You want to colonize them. This
- 4:15Speaker 1: is obvious. You're doing the fucking leftist trick that they
- 4:18Speaker 1: always do, which they accuse you of doing what they're doing.
- 4:22Speaker 1: This is insane. These people are crazy or corrupt or
- 4:28Speaker 1: whatever you want to say. It's a lunacy anyway. That's
- 4:32Speaker 1: all I'm gonna say about that. Please like, share, and subscribe.
- 4:35Speaker 1: Subscribing really helps me out. I thank you for that.
- 4:39Speaker 1: I will see you next time.
