My friend came to school and told me she could no longer be my friend since I was black.”⁣ ⁣ ⁣ “I was six years old when a girl told me I wasn’t allowed to do certain things because I was Black. It’s a privilege not to be spoken to about race until you’re deemed ‘old enough.’”⁣ ⁣⁣ “I was in preschool the first time someone (also in preschool) called me the n-word. It is never too soon. In fact, you can’t have that conversation soon enough. If you don’t talk to your kid about race, someone else will and it probably won’t be anything good or useful.”⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ “I had to tell my son he was Black at 2.5 years old because he wasn’t invited to Tom’s party.”⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ “I was in kindergarten, playing with some lego-type building blocks and I remember 3 kids handed me all of the brown blocks in the collection and said I could have them all because they were ugly and poop-colored like me. Never forgot that.”⁣ ⁣ ⁣ We collected these stories in five minutes scrolling through the stories people shared in response to a post @theconsciouskid made. They are not rare.⁣ ⁣⁣ Don’t let the child in your kid’s class be their first experience with someone who looks different than they do. ⁣ ⁣ The language in this post was inspired by “All the Colors We Are: The Story of How We Get Our Skin Color,” by Katie Kissinger & Chris Bohnhoff, which we highly recommend! It uses toddler-friendly language and even has games and activities for parents or teachers to open the conversation.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Some other great books.⁣⁣ - Something Happened In Our Town: A Child’s Story About Racial Injustice by @mpcelano, @mhcollins1913 and Ann Hazzard⁣⁣ - Skin Again by @bellhooks_⁣⁣ - Let’s Talk About Race by Julius Lester⁣⁣ - Hands Up! by @bremacboks and @shaneevans⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Check out linktr.ee/antiracistkids for more resources on anti-racist parenting.
