Yle Areena you can find a slew of both new and older children’s programs. One of these programs is the radio theatre Pippi Longstocking -radio play, which is 19 episodes yle’s children’s Arena.
the mother of the Family got upset classic fairy tale of language use. Picture Pippi Longstocking actress Inger Nilsson. AOP
the Helsinki-based family mother Anna, 40, and her three-year-old children were listening to Pippi change the amusement for the bump period of 8 minutes, when I found that it cannot listen any longer.
Let the stunned period of the language. Section explains Peppi’s father, Ephraim Longstocking, which in the old Pippi books dubbed was a nigger king.
–the Section to say so many times, a negro king, and negroes. I don’t want to explain to the child what is a nigger or nigger king. My child is in kindergarten, where there is a lot of dark-skinned children. It would be a disaster if tolerated I taught the child would start saying the word nigger in front of people, worried Anna said clearly upset,
Let me keep reading and culture as an important issue, also in the Yle, he is considered to be reliable.
–the Language to build the world, and scorn to impose my child such a stale world!
the radio theater program is made in 1996 and it is based on Astrid Lindgren Pippi-books. The first Pippi Longstocking book appeared in 1945.
Pepin’s new book the weight of the removed nigger king-the word. Peppi’s father dubbed the recent editions of the south sea king.
I thought I protected my world, that this n-word, it was just a word that belongs to history, and can stay in place. I’ve changed my mind, because, unfortunately, it is a word that still is used. It hurt, and we simply cannot leave it to Pippi books, lindgren’s daughter, Karin Nyman told the Dagens nyheter for the year 2015.
Yle has for some reason chosen a different line, and the nigger king-the word has not been corrected, although it would be assumed in the digital age simple.
–Helsinki Rock area after living, can not understand how hateful the world has been still in 1996. I’m sorry on behalf of all children who are exposed to this Exceedingly hostile to the program, Let say.
Yle publishing director: ”the Repository to clean it would be wrong”
Yle publishing director Ismo Sihvo to know the period of the whole problem.
–Precisely for this reason, Pippi-a radio play at the beginning of the reading programme containing racist expressions. It is enough now, we’re not going to change the content. Now that’s not, of course, Sihvo said.
Sihvon, according to the archives there are plenty of other programs with racist expressions.
–Yle can not clean out the entire 100-year cultural archive, it would be wrong.
Sihvo guess is that the children themselves find the content they are listening to Peppiä and other programs together with parents.
–Yes it is the parents ‘ task to teach children in these contexts.
Anna looked so best, that the time period to listen to the end.
the Episode got bad I also let the three year old children. He had wanted to hear the end of section.
– He asked many times, why Peppiä can’t listen to. The children will therefore feel bad about Overeating. I answered him, that the program get stuck.
