  Thatcher is an educated and bright woman who must know the history and offensive nature of the term she used, but she used it anyway - why? Why draw attention to a black tennis players hair being like an offensive historic toy which was used as a means of highlighting "difference" and a means of oppression in the first place? Like "noticing" that African-Americans have thick lips. Not funny, not gracious and not necessary. And remember this was not a private conversation, but one held in her workplace, in a public arena of a broadcasting organisation.
