Pétition d’être entendu à ce sujet !
Constatant qu’historiquement, les images anti-Noirs ont stéréotypé les personnes de race noire comme étant grotesques, stupides, paresseux, bouffons, lâches, superstitieux et trop joyeux.

Que d’autre part, des recherches ont démontré que les enfants ne naissent pas racistes qu’ils ont hérité de traits racistes de l’éducation qu’ils ont reçue de leurs parents. C’est pourquoi nous ne voulons pas que cette marionnette grotesque soit utilisée dans des pièces de théâtre pour nos enfants.

En conséquence, nous faisons les nôtres les commentaires de monsieur Alain Babineau, directeur de Coalition rouge (Red Coalition) selon lequel l'apparence de la marionnette de l’artiste Franck Sylvestre est raciste et peut offenser les gens.

ET J’AI SIGNÉ.

Petition to be heard on this subject!
Noting that historically, anti-black images have stereotyped black people as grotesque, stupid, lazy buffoons, cowards, superstitious and overly cheerful.

That, on the other hand, research has shown that children are not born racist, but have inherited racist traits from their parents' upbringing.

That is why we do not want this grotesque puppet to be used in plays for our children.

We therefore endorse the comments of Alain Babineau, Director of the Red Coalition to the effect that the appearance of artist Franck Sylvestre's puppet is racist and may offend people.

AND I SIGNED.
