jumpstart Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 There is absolutely no connection between white town and racism. It’s describing colour not race. Is white paint racist. Is a person called Mr White racist because his name is white? Is the White House is America racist.....oh perhaps not a good example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are you so keen to call it white town? Apparently it's because most of the buildings are painted white.

Maybe if we got the residents of Bideford to paint around 4% of the properties black then that might not upset your liccle stomach so much princess and reflect our multicultural land ...
