Reposted from @newwomenspace It's importance to educate children on the issues of race and racism from an early age. Although it might be difficult and uncomfortable to have these conversations, they are extremely necessary.
To make these conversations a little easier we here at New Women Space have gathered a list of ten children's books to help you pave the way. Just remember: While, yes, these conversations are important, it's equally important to provide a counterpoint. A child's life, whether a PoC or not, is filled with curiosity and wonder, happy and sad days, and fights with annoying siblings. Be sure to provide examples of PoC children expressing joy, having fun days, or not wanting to share their favorite toy too. Offer multiple joyful books for every one book on racism.
We want our young PoC children to know that it's okay to have a day where all they want to think about is when they'll get their next double-scoop of chocolate chip ice cream. And our non-PoC family to know that PoC life is not fraught with racial tension from dusk to dawn. The entirety of the human experience is important to share. If you are interested in purchasing any of these books, consider supporting Black-owned bookstores in your area or check out these PoC shops that carry all ten books and are currently taking online orders! 📕The Lit.
