"The Prince [of Edinburgh] is the repository of all the colonial past and all the class privileges of the present. His racist remarks should not be whitewashed or camouflaged. They need to be properly, accurately, and verbatim catalogued in the British Library and made available to future generations of scholars and critical thinkers, anthropologists of the racist foregrounding of European imperialism for careful and close analysis.

From the rampant racism now dominant in Israel to pernicious xenophobia evident in Trump's America , it's all there: rooted in these unhinged expletives in polite, aristocratic British English." The priceless racism of the Duke of Edinburgh
