Race Card

“We should be talking about race.”

Studies show that more white parents are uncomfortable to talk about their race to their children than non-white parents,who are three times more likely to talk to children about race. There is a downfall in not talking about race. If we do not talk about it, the more our children will think about it. A solution to teach children is to let them become ‘colorblind’, or pretend not to notice races. However, noticing races is inevitable. I agree that addressing races and biases to children is important because by highlighting everybody’s differences, we can teach children that one race is not less or more valuable than the others.
