My seven-year-old came to me during Black History Month and stated she had a ‘black friend’ and that I should have told her she was different. I asked where she got that information, and she said she learned it in school. Now, when my daughter walks down a street and sees a black woman, man or child, she makes a point of showing me they’re colored and she is not. I feel she should understand that color does not mean anything, and that everyone is equal and that it should not be an issue. Are we pointing out the difference in color among ourselves, and does color always have to be an issue? Why are educators insistent on separating the groups of people?
