I have repeatedly challenged the triggered people to tell me what is actually racist about this Tamil tale.

I point out that if anything the story, which is about a little boy who manages to bribe the tigers not to eat him and then cleverly gets his bribes back, is only not racist but should be praised as not being "Eurocentic".

If it came out now it would be required reading in all schools. Since it is over a hundred years old it must be "bad".
