Sadly, racism is too prevalent and the more we talk to our children about the issue, the better. If they can spot racist behaviour, and understand how unfair it is, the less likely they are to be racist themselves, and the better they’ll be at sticking up for others. This hugely effective book works by posing serious questions for children.
These are printed on flaps and illustrated with bright illustrations, appealing to look at and very engaging. After they’ve thought about the questions and discussed them, the flaps can be lifted to reveal answers, which are clear, expressed in ways that children will understand, but often thought-provoking and likely to lead to more discussion themselves.
The questions are grouped under themes from ‘What is racism?’ to ‘Why are people racist?’ and finally, ‘How can we stop racism?’ Throughout, children are encouraged to think for themselves and, while it’s clear how damaging and hurtful racism is, there’s a positive message that says through understanding, being aware and changing our behaviour, together we can stop racism forever.
From 'What's wrong with the idea of 'race'? and 'Why is life harder for people with darker skin?' to 'Don't ALL lives matter?' and 'What's racism got to do with me?' this book tackles powerful, pertinent questions in a direct, accessible and thought-provoking way.
