[quote=Anonymous]I think as a resource it worked better as a way for parents to frame conversations with their kids about racism--especially white families who aren't sure how to approach the subject. My (half-black) 5.5 y/o was only mildly interested although she paid attention to the parts toward the beginning where they described what racism is (how they talked about being treated badly because of skin color). Like a PP she also thought it was cool they mentioned Rosa Parks and she knew who she was. And she asked about the protestors, connecting it to an earlier conversation we had last week about protests. It's good to see CNN and Sesame Street doing these town halls and helping facilitate discussions. Not everything is going to resonate with everyone and there are a lot of misses among the hits. But it's progress.[/quote]
