I live in a rural community in the UK; black and Asian people were virtually unseen here 40 years ago, so it was surprising to drive past a large group of black children. My baby daughter just said: What a lot of children! No mention of colour. Children are not racist by nature but nurture.
That said, I was upset and sickened by the hard stare my neighbour gave a visiting friend from Antigua. Ironically, he is now old and immobile and receives daily care from African migrants. Poetic justice.

Turns out, lots of people don't like masses of illiterate immigrants flooding their country. What a shock.
England = Land of the Anglos
Scotland = Land of the Scots
Ireland = Land of the Irish
Doesn't say anything about Land of the Antiguans
