[quote=Anonymous] Depending on the age of your children you may want to read Nella Larsen's novela Passing (1928). She also has some good short stories on this topic. It would explain some of the whys, and provide context to the decision to pass. It doesn't change their identity, but will demonstrate how intertwined we all are in our shared history. It opens up the conversation about race in this country as well, and could lead to some really positive reflections of equity and exclusion. What if she hadn't chosen to pass? How different would her life have been? What could it have meant throughout the family line? That's a podcast I'd listen to, for sure! [/quote]
