Should the dolls be banned?
A costal cafe has sparked fury after it has been spotted selling "morally unacceptable" golliwog dolls.
"These racially stereotypical caricatures have been morally unacceptable in this country for years. But not in Norfolk, it would appear. They are racially divisive and antisocial." Top news stories today "But people aren't complaining about the other things I have on display. They're not seeing the whole picture."
This comes in the same week that a pub landlady, Benice Ryley, defiantly displayed her Gollies dolls in her pub, despite police seizing the toys just days ago as part of alleged "hate crime". But Robertson's stopped using the golly character in 2002. Having the appearance of jet-black skin, big lips and big white teeth, golliwogs have been used to dehumanise black people.
