Dancing Nazis. An Affront to Multiculturalism

A quote from Karen Chouhan, chairperson of the Black Londoners’ Forum (BLF), 3 January 2007
Simone Clarke’s membership [of the British National Party] and views represent an affront to multiculturalism and is inconsistent with the [English National Ballet]’s statutory race equality duty. We should not forget the central role that culture and the arts played in the ideology and propaganda of National Socialism during the early years of Nazi Germany, right up until the fall of the Third Reich in 1945.

I wonder what Karen would have to say if she found out that yet another dancer is a paying member of the WLF (the White Londoners' Forum)?

"We should not forget the central role that culture and the arts played in the ideology and propaganda of National Socialism during the early years of Nazi Germany, right up until the fall of the Third Reich in 1945."
So what is Mrs. Clarke doing to campaign for her ideology ? Does she wear an SS suit when being on stage ? Or might she even be dancing in a way, which influences the audience subtly?
And moreover all those comparison to the Third Reich which are so inappropriate and of no use, for what we face today is an utterly different situation. Yet, its frequently used as almighty argument to suffocate any cumbersome debate arising.
Simon Clarke is the best living instance of how political correctness and xenophil totalitarianism ruin the lives of spotless citizens whose only flaw it is to have adopted a rather inconvenient political attitude.
At least she can spell 'National Socialism'

I realize that Ms. Choucan is eager to demonstrate her elementary knowledge of the Second World War, however, she is simply wrong on all count. The ENB staff is not majorily or wholly members of the BNP, nor is the BNP the government in power, nor does it have any form of artistic control over the ENB through financial or political means. Period. Furthermore, why do Black Londoners need a form apart from everyone else? Is that not prejudiced? No, because the UK allows for freedom of speech and freedom of association.
