I’ve watched this video maybe a dozen times. It makes me want to vomit. I’m obsessed with it. Some choice bits:
Black student Yohan Scarlet: “They might be a small minority but they’re still part of society. They might marginalize themselves or might feel marginalized but they’re still part of society.”
White member of Mothers Against Murder and Aggression Lyn Costello [aside, practically under her breath; listen closely]: “No, not my society.”
Mothers For Murder and Aggression declined BBC Newsnight’s invitation to appear, as they were all busy rioting.
Why do so many white people seem to believe that society belongs to them?
White panel moderator and BBC Newsnight presenter Gavin Esler: “Should we try and understand this [the riots]?”
White former editor of The Sun newspaper Kelvin Mackenzie: ”No, I don’t think we should.”
Understanding why people do certain things only makes it harder to prevent them from doing those things. Duh. Thinking is for weaklings and cunts.
Iranian-English rapper Reveal: “Where are these kids getting their examples from? The early morning stock market advice was take advantage of people’s fear to capitalize on low prices.”
Preach.
White panel moderator and BBC Newsnight presenter Gavin Esler, to black student Yohan Scarlet: “You’re very articulate, you’re clearly very bright.”

You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your fucking fingers and say “That’s the bad guy.” So? What does that make you? Good? You’re not good.
“It’s been a long time coming, but I know, but I know a change has gotta come.”
The BBC will never replay this.
Try its natural companion piece, The Union Problem.
