The Politically Incorrect Alphabet.

By Alex in Everything Else, Politics on Sep 10, 2006 at 10:18 pm

From the website:

My wife is a teacher of young children, and I’ve spent a fair time of late sitting on undersized chairs admiring the alphabet charts on classroom walls. Typically ‘A’ will stand for Apple, ‘B’ for Ball. It occurred to me that ‘I’ for Indian, one I remember from my childhood, has been replaced as it is no longer politically correct to refer to native/first/indigenous Americans as Indians.

Lacking any tact or decency, I therefore determined to create an alphabet using only subjects that, while they might have been unremarked a few decades ago, are now outside acceptable usage.

This website has been making the rounds on the Internet lately and deservingly so : LinkThanks Martijn!
