What Alom Shaha actually said

  1. Alom Shaha British science teacher, writer and filmmaker
    Whilst I agree that you might technically be able to apply the words racism or sexism when someone says something mean about a white man, just as scientists get angry when creationists misuse the word theory, I tend to get a little annoyed when these words are used in this context.
