There's lots to see in the world.
2 March 2007
Watching "You're an Education" in the 21st century, it's probably most recognizable that many of the images are pretty racist. As long as we understand that, it's OK to luxuriate in the cartoon itself. This was one of many shorts portraying inanimate objects (books, food, clothes) coming to life. In this case, travel brochures interact with each other, until the Thief of Baghdad steals some diamonds from Transvaal. There are plenty of jokes along the way: the Russian Steppes are a staircase, the Cape of Good Hope is a real cape, and Italy turns into a boot.

So, it's an OK time. But just realize that some of the images are pretty racist.
