[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone else think the flip side of this conversation is important as well? And by that I mean, talking to our kids about extending grace (or the benefit of the doubt) to children who might say something offensive because they are young and testing boundaries, or because they are singing along to a song they like, or [b]because they just genuinely didn’t know any better? [/b] What I have seen recently is the cultivation of an almost mob-like mentality in our youth, in which they are encouraged to show no mercy to anyone who may have ever made a mistake.[/quote] the thing is, grown adults have been using that excuse for decades when it comes to racism. and it really hasn't benefitted those who are *harmed* by racism. that is why YOU need to teach kids. YOU need to know better [/quote]
