That bloke came to our school, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN, WHEN YOU SAY HAAAAAAAALF CAAAAST"
He was quite good, funny in a weird way.
I personally don't see the term half-cast offensive, I've got 2 black mates and my best mate is half-cast, but to be fair then again, I rarely use the term, just say black mainly but again never in a position to use it as I rarely ever have to describe him to someone...
It was John Agard.
Analysing poems really got me far in life.
Ugh, **** poems.
