So what if she taught them to wash clothes? what is racist there? Racism/Tribalism, hate is when they dont allow them to wash clothes. Claiming they will waste water and soap. Shebi na only those her 4 helps she taught to wash her clothes ba? isholrite. Lets move on and find ways to improve Africa and teach the oyinbos how to time travel.

How can she be offering a lesson when she is standing miles away from them? undecided

Her hands arent wet and her gown doesnt look practical for washing clothes.

My take is those women are her slaves/servants washing for her but you know how oyibos like to take credit for everything even for people washing their clothes for them. angry

Why does the thread title have the word "Racism"?This occurred over 100 years ago and so the statue of limitation may apply for anyone who tries to accuse/prosecute Mrs. Thomas Titcombe.

Never again!
Re: THROWBACK PICTURE: Nigerian Women Being Taught How To Wash Clothes In 1915 by AAinEqGuinea:
This still happens..

As an AA during my studies in the US I went to a seminar from the Catholic Relief Services looking for a NGO to help me volunteer in Africa. They played a video highlighting the orgs work in southern Africa. In the video they highlighted similar images to op's picture.

I was ready to walk out of that propaganda honey pot once i heard an African lady gleefully proclaim to the camera, "we would have never thought of this on our own". angry the missionaries "helped" create a simple barter system in their village and that makes them Christ angry I never returned
