Make unconscious bias training part of the curriculum for students aged 11-14

Petition Details

Make all students undergo unconscious bias training in school between the age of 11 and 14, to learn about and reverse their prejudice towards French people.

Additional Information

For too long I have been ridiculed in the streets of Britain for my accent and the way that I greet people (with a kiss on either cheek). In restaurants, the waiters gather around and laugh in my face when I ask for a delicious serving of frogs' legs. One time when I was munching on a baguette in a movie theater while watching Cars 2, a young teenage boy shouted "she's scranning a baguette" and everyone laughed at me.

Prejudice towards French people has been socially acceptable for far too long
