This Indian Vintage Video Called ’10 Little N*gger Boys’ Has Definitely Not Aged Well.

Shreemi Verma

There is a nursery rhyme created by Preeti Sagar for children called 10 little nigger boys. In her defense, we’re sure she didn’t know offensive the word is (this video was made in the early ’80’s), it’s very recently that Indians have become more aware of racial slurs in the West. Also, this isn’t a song she created, this poem was made in the 19th century written by an American – Frank J. Green. The video recently surfaced again on a page on Reddit. Needless to say, this nursery rhyme hasn’t aged well.

Oh boy!
