Product Description
A Kids Book About Systemic Racism
Author(s): Jordan Thierry
Format: Hardback
Help kids understand the complexities of systemic racism.
This is a kids' book about systemic racism. It was made to help kids understand what systemic racism is and how it's built into laws, schools, stories and other institutions in a way that collectively makes life much harder for people of colour.
This book was made to help kids aged 5-9 understand what systemic racism is and what it means in people's lives. Systemic racism is incredibly difficult to understand - even for grown-ups! - but it isn't always obvious, which is what makes it so hard to see.
A Kids Book About Systemic Racism features:
A large and bold, yet minimalist font design that allows kids freedom to imagine themselves in the words on the pages. A friendly, approachable, empowering and child-appropriate tone throughout. An incredible and diverse group of authors in the series who are experts or have first-hand experience of the topic.
