Last week, however, marked a new low. For the first time in my life, during a debate on Radio 4’s Today programme, I was called a racist.
The charge was laid against me by Dr Derrick Campbell, chief executive of Race Equality in Sandwell, West Midlands, who told me I had never experienced racism and accused me of ‘stigmatising black people’.
My crime? Daring to speak out on behalf of thousands of ethnic minority children languishing in the laughably titled ‘care’ system because inter-racial adoption has been effectively banned for decades.
I know what I am talking about because, unlike Dr Campbell, I was one of those children. Were it not for the sheer bloody-minded persistence of my adoptive parents, my own life would have been spent in care homes.'
I am really struggling. Whom do I despise more? - Is it racists or the professional 'anti-racists'? Gotta admit - it's a pretty close run thing!
