The text says "Braithwaite's version of events was challenged in An East End Story (2002), an autobiography written by Alfred Gardner, a former pupil." but the book was not published till 2013 and the synopsis says nothing of this 2.26.199.245 (talk) 12:34, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The text says under Criticisms: "Prejudice against him is unfair, he claims, because of his social accomplishment, not because of his humanity; and he implies thereby that prejudice against black people who lack similar cultural habits may be justified." I however find the final clause to be a conjecture. Throughout the book, nowhere does it imply that he is okay with black people, who lack similar cultural habits, to be treated unfairly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.150.241.146 (talk) 18:53, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Is F. M. Birbalsingh the father of Katharine Birbalsingh? --Error (talk) 20:03, 4 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

We are told that her father's first name was Frank, so very possible; the comments about him in her entry support this possibility. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.18.122.83 (talk) 14:38, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
