Up In Alms - Little Dead Rotting Hood

Your slightly belated insight into the world of the arts

Inside The Arts - Ep 1

We know you're all going to be devastated when TV soaps run out of episodes and that it's definitely at the top of things to worry about right now. In this special dedicated to soaps, we interview critically acclaimed director Dog Joris Johnson about his directing technique and get an exclusive recording from his upcoming series. 

Fun fact: Did you know that Dog Joris Johnson once said “If gay marriage was OK… I saw no reason in principle why a union should not be consecrated between three men, as well as two men, or indeed three men and a dog.” Or was that the other Johnson...?

Inside The Arts (Soaps Special) - Episode 2

In the third episode of Inside The Arts, we interview far-right activist Divad Rallingson who has resurrected Winston Churchill with an organic 3D printer.
This episode was inspired by a Facebook post I found circulating which was written by a man who wrote inane facts about immigrants and ethnic groups living in the UK to back up his racist agenda. He tries to back up his pathetic argument with statements like, “if there were white schools only, that would be racist”, “if we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships, you know we’d be racists” and “if we had any organisation for only whites to ‘advance our lives, we’d be racists” – I’ve got some news for you pal. And then there’s the other nonsense which isn’t fact checked whatsoever – “you have swimming pools for Asian women” – where he later goes on to generalise all ethnic groups in the UK by saying they “rob us, carjack us and rape our daughters.”
No one is saying that white lives don’t matter. It is a protest to support those who have been systematically targeted by the state because of their appearance, and who have mercilessly died because of it. No one is saying that “flying our flag” or “celebrating St George’s day” makes you a racist – it’s the select people, the select white supremacists and eugenicists who fly the flag to support their racist ideology.
The character Divad is influenced by this original post, primarily talking in quotes from the original text. 
At the time, obviously, there was a defence made against the removal of the statue of former prime-minister Winston Churchill. Sure, if you want to defend the statue, absolutely, you have a right. But, just like the Colston statue (which got delayed inevitably until its toppling) there should be an awareness made as to the beliefs of this man. Yes, he did an outstanding duty to the country and helped to save countless lives. But his views on other races, his practised eugenic beliefs in his writings, his belief in the sterilisation of “feeble minded” disabled people to boost the “Aryan stock” is inexcusable, no matter what he did.
I have used his horrible quotes in this episode. Links to the quotations from Churchill can be found below.
Although this episode is delayed from the BLM protests, it’s still as relevant as it’s ever been.

"I think we shall have to take the Chinese in hand and regulate them. I believe that as civilized nations become more powerful they will get more ruthless, and the time will come when the world will impatiently bear the existence of great barbaric nations who may at any time arm themselves and menace civilized nations. I believe in the ultimate partition of China—I mean ultimate. I hope we shall not have to do it in our day. The Aryan stock is bound to triumph - https://winstonchurchill.org/publications/finest-hour/finest-hour-159/wsc-a-midnight-interview-1902/ 

I do not admit that the dog in a manger has the final right to the manger even though he has lain there for a very long time. I do not admit that right. "I do not admit for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, a higher-grade race, a more worldly wise race to put it that way, has come in and taken their place." - https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=ihWyeQchBScC&pg=PA9&lpg=PA9&dq=palestine+royal+commission+report+churchill+red+indians&source=bl&ots=fqe10nKhWa&sig=GcbUowychoxzbRVPV9CYbqkB1T8&hl=en&sa=X&ei=quhAVFji1e4”dG_ceAsAU#v=onepage&q&f=true
