Agree with Anila Dhami on here - we couldn't win the WW1 and WW2 without the bravery and support from the Commonwealth.

I find it funny that people would tolerate bullying and racist behavior until the point where they become the target.

After complaints re Dunkirk film, of no diversity ie blacks or females on beaches!. A recent SNL sketch re black soldiers in Frozen 2 ' Norway', plus many other incongruous placeings'. Can't we excuse Laurence a mistake, which he has now apologised for.

I belive this comes down to people not understaning hostory and then using diverity in the wrong way. let me give an example: We have a story of some saboteurs doing a mission, historically they were all white, then a movie is made, one of them is made black, and so far so good, howerver it then also normalizes this, removing the very possible racism this black man would face in the unit, and also why insert him in aunit where he does not belong. then the so called intelligencia will argue that so and so many blacks fought in the war, and they are correct, but NONE fought in that battel ir in THAT unit. We see this in hisrorical context, ratrher than actually looking at the fantastica cna truly amazing black, indian and all other non western cutural histiries and their cultures and look at them we somehow feel that since they "can not take care of them seleves and their history, we need to give them a chunk of ours" by making robin hood a black man, or by placing a sikh where he does not belong to make him a token for some misunderstood politics. Why not make a war move about the sikhs and their exceptional bravery in the service, rater than insert a sikh were he never belonged as a anti-racist token, it is disrectful to the sikhs and it is racist.

As far as I know Fox was perfectly correct in that at that time there would not have been any Sikhs in British army units, as portrayed in the film (at least not turbanned or bearded, I don't know if any joined 'incognito'). I believe people are deliberately misunderstanding him in order to claim offence. Yes, it would have been much better for the film to include an Indian army unit comprised of Sikh or Muslim troops in order to pay proper tribute to their heroic contribution to the war, but I guess Sam Mendes wasn't that interested in the true diversity of 'our' side.

@@jasonchambers4495 Really? There's lots of information, most of which I already knew, about Sikhs in the Indian Army fighting in WW1 but nothing on Sikhs enlisted in regular British Army units mixed in with 'white' troops, as seems to be suggested by the film 1917. Certainly Sikh units fought heroically alongside British Army units but not, as far as I can see, in mixed regiments. Any references gratefully received.
