The Royal Adelaide Show has removed several golliwog dolls from a public display in response to accusations of racism on social media.
Photos of the dolls were posted on Twitter by activist Dominic Guerrera on Sunday and reposted on Facebook by social media group Deadly Yarning.
Mr Guerrera, who is of Nagarrindjeri, Kaurna and Italian descent, told NITV News he felt shocked when he saw the dolls on public display.
“As an Aboriginal person I went from having a really fun day with my friends, going through all the exhibitions, to having to confront racism,” he said.
He said he had previously seen Golliwog dolls on display at florists, chemists and newsagencies and told store staff he was offended.
