James Gillespie's plans to stop To Kill a Mockingbird teachings slammed by Sir Geoff Palmer


“It’s part of the story of racism.
“We need to keep it, teach it and explain it.
“I fully support the principle of decolonisation of the curriculum, but where would it stop?
“If we remove To Kill A Mockingbird is Othello next – or the Slave’s Lament?
“We have to be careful here.
“Instead of removing this book from classrooms we need to show how the book embodies the racism of its time.
“That same racism that killed George Floyd.
“The injustice depicted in the text helps give us a view of and understand why we still have racism today.

The Woke Have Come to Cancel Adam Smith


the most important books written in history, the
Wealth of Nations (1776)—has been listed as a potential site to investigate on the basis that Smith allegedly accepted slavery as “inevitable.”
There is so much wrong with this claim about the father of modern economics that it is difficult to know where to start. Perhaps the best place to begin is with the fact that Adam Smith despised slavery.
In his
Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759), Smith described slave-traders as “the refuse of the jails of Europe… who possess the virtues neither of the countries which they come from, nor of those which they go to, and whose levity, brutality, and baseness, so justly expose them to the contempt of the vanquished.” He also considered it “almost needless to prove that slavery is a bad institution even for freemen.”

Statue of Henry Dundas will have a plaque detailing his role in delaying the abolition of slavery


A plaque will be added to a statue of controversial 19th Century politician Henry Dundas - detailing his role in delaying the abolition of slavery.
The monument to Conservative politician Dundas at the Melville Monument in St Andrews Square, Edinburgh, became a focal point for discussion during Black Lives Matter demonstrations in June.
Activists left signs at the monument saying 'Bring down Dundas', 'Their lives mattered', and 'Hope' - and some called for a plaque to be added explaining Dundas' role in delaying the abolition of slavery while Home Secretary in the 1800s. 
Academics say his actions in deferring the abolition resulted in an additional 630,000 people being transported from Africa to Britain's colonies in the West Indies.

THE BIG READ: Final resting place of 'father of capitalism' Adam Smith has resurrected Scottish slavery debate
He is the most famous economist who ever lived, so the inclusion of Smith’s gravesite on an Edinburgh Slavery and Colonialism Legacy Review Group list has not gone down well with historians such as Sir Tom Devine
It doesn’t look controversial at first. But look a little bit closer. In places, the words are hard to read – they’re a bit faded after a couple of hundred years of Edinburgh wind and rain – but you can just about make them out. “Here are deposited the remains of the author of The Theory of Moral Sentiments and The Wealth of Nations. He was born 5th June 1723 and died on 17th July 1790.”

Adam Smith's grave is included in dossier of sites linked to slavery and colonialism


The 'Father of Capitalism' Adam Smith's grave has been included in Edinburgh City Council's 'ludicrously biased' dossier of sites linked to slavery and colonialism.
The Scottish council last year launched a review of Edinburgh's links to slavery and colonialism in response to the Black Lives Matter movement, led by human rights activist Sir Geoff Palmer.
The Slavery and Colonialism Legacy Review Group will consider how monuments and street names linked to 'oppression' could be 're-configured' or potentially removed.  
The grave of Adam Smith at Canongate Kirkyard has been included on a list of sites linked to 'historic racial injustice', the Daily Telegraph reported.
