Black sheep are on the endangered species list as some children in north Queensland learn to sing Baa Baa Rainbow Sheep.
The English nursery rhyme may have survived for 200-plus years but political correctness could finally put it out to pasture.
Some schools in Britain have banned the song for being racist, but Pelicans Innisfail Child Care allows children to sing about black sheep or rainbow sheep.

Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take the sky from me
Take me out to the rainbow
Tell them I ain't comin' back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can't take the sky from me
There's no place I can be
Since I found Serenity
But you can't take the sky from me...
Just not the same.

Who knew then that one of England’s finest, Tolkien was a vile racist? By the Ba ba Logic the Lord of the Rings is going to have to be completely re-written.
Rainbow Riders
The terrible Rainbow Hand of Sauron
Mordor - the Rainbow Land
Although, I must say this creates a bit of a conflict and will do a lot of harm to the overall plot.

Four and twenty blackbirds are planning to protest this development. According to their latest press statement, “It’s not over ‘til we sing and the King hears about it.”

I am offended by all mention of any colors whatsoever, because black people were called 'colored' once.
No colors may be mentioned in any venue, anywhere.

So, in Physics class will it now be
1. “Rainbow Body Radiation”, or
2. “African-American Body Radiation?”
I vote for #2.
Anecdote: When I was in school (and the concept was half its present age!) I heard from a dorm-mate that one professor called it “Heisenberg’s South Side Maiden Radiation.”
