Mary Poppins slapped with 'PG' rating by British film classification board for use of discriminatory language
The BBFC defended the decision, citing 'racism and discrimination research'
The beloved 1964 film "Mary Poppins" has received a PG rating to warn parents about the use of "discriminatory language" in the film, per a recent report.

"The reclassification is due to the use of the word Hottentots," the outlet explained. "The dated term was historically used by Europeans to refer to the Khoekhoe, a group of nomadic herders in South Africa, but is now regarded as racially offensive."
