Our Skin: Talking About Race with Young Children
Young children notice a lot—including skin color, race, and even injustice and racism. It can be hard to find the right words to answer their questions or to start a conversation about race. But when we don’t talk about it, children often come to their own conclusions, which can include bias and stereotypes because of the world we live in. In this one-hour workshop, the creators of the book Our Skin: A First Conversation About Race help early childhood educators learn to start simple conversations that can help young children make sense of their world and even recognize and speak up about injustice.
