[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC is a POC and attends Deal. She attended a JKLM elementary. I have to say I'm disappointed that even after moving to a more diverse school all her new friends are white (maybe because all of her elementary school friends were white?). [/quote] That's interesting. Is it possible to just be happy she has friends? [/quote]. Many people of color feel the need to have some role models who look like them. I do think this is important given that we have have biases and if a POC has only white friendships those biases may be reflected back. I wish it were as simple as just having friends but that assumes no prejudice, overt or subconscious[/quote]
