google little black sambo - it's a childrens story or it use to be before the days of the PC police

Yeah, so?  That was about an Indian boy. I still don't get it.

Quote
The Story of Little Black Sambo, a children's book by Helen Bannerman, a Scot living in India, was first published in London in 1899. In the tale, an Indian boy named Sambo prevails over a group of hungry tigers

Sambo is a racial term for a person with mixed indigenous and African heritage in the Caribbean, also for a Black, or South Asian person in the United States and the United Kingdom. It is considered a racial slur in the US and UK but not in the Caribbean.

My Mom has a Sambo doll. She got it in the early fifties. Still excellent shape never out of the box. So I have only seen it twice. Didn't realize it was racist. I am learning lots of different terms on this game that I have never heard before.

Naive Yes sorry. Never learned any of these slangs growing up. :confused:

Am I the only one who remembers a restaurant chain called 'Sambos'??   I believe the specialty was buttered pancakes. (tiger butter I suppose)
