Danish Jim Crow laws.

“What is the name of the big staircase in Rome?”

I don’t know, and I spent a week in Rome. This is a wypipo pop-culture trivia question that has fuck-all to do with parenting.

Keira is one of countless Greenlandic women in Denmark who have been separated from their children after undergoing highly controversial “parenting competency” tests (known as forældrekompetenceundersøgelse or FKU) used by social services to assess whether parents are suitable to care for their children.

What the flying fuck. She doesn’t speak Danish and wasn’t provided a translator for the test, resulting in her 3 children to be “removed”.
