[quote=Anonymous]Actually I think it’s a perfect age. Most, if not all 4 year olds will think that it’s a bad thing that MLK was assassinated. My hope is that kids with these types of educational experiences will grow up to become adults who think that it’s a bad thing to assassinate people who work for justice. This is, perhaps, somewhat of a tangent, but MLK, JFK, RFK, and Malcolm X all had young kids when they were assassinated. Imagine what those Moms had to tell their kids. Imagine the questions that these kids must have had. My hope is that by sharing the truth of our history in age-appropriate ways with even pre-school students, we can foster the kinds of communities that reject violence. [/quote]
