Essay 1554


Alarming news in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• A British ballerina (pictured above) is dancing with controversy for being a member of the far-right British National Party and publicly declaring her views on immigration. “I have been labeled a racist and a fascist because I have a view on immigration, and I mean mass immigration, but isn’t that something that a lot of people worry about?” said the dancer. “Everything will be different now. I will be known as the ‘BNP ballerina.’ I think that will stick with me for life. I’d rather it wasn’t like that but I don’t regret anything. I will stay a member.” A professional ballet artist has conservative political beliefs — how alarming!

• Michael Jackson settled a legal fight with a pharmacy claiming the artist owed them in excess of $100,000 for prescription drugs over the past two years. Jacko was facing a lawsuit— how alarming!

• How tall was James Brown? The answer led to gunfire between two Alabama men arguing over the trivial point, with one dude catching two bullets in the abdomen. There are morons in Alabama — how alarming!
