BBC racism question...
In light of the weekend’s heated ‘racism’ debates on this site, I have a question.
On the current edition of the Scrimmage, while talking about problems with hotel facilities in Africa, anchorman Matt Gudgeon made the assumption: “There probably aren’t many 5 star hotels out there”.
So, is that racist, or a fair assumption given it’s a developing nation?
I think it can be argued either way…
