Since apparently questions can just be a way to get your review stuck to the top of a Goodreads listing, a recommendation for people missing the point of this book: "Innocence is overrated. Knowledge is Power. Get some. Grow wise. Make history." Here's a question: Does anyone know more kids' books that discuss whiteness and how white people can help fight racism?

A woke journey of blaming 'whitey' making sure to demonise kids who are born the wrong skin colour. Absolutely racist and condescending tripe. If this was written about any other racial group.. it would be banned immediately. Why are people being taken in by this racist nonsense?

If you watch liberal news stations they will push certain stories. But you could need to expose your child to how BLM activists murder police. How very few black or brown people are killed by police, and how hard police try not to kill anyone, but when dealing with violent criminals its difficult. 98% of black or brown people who are killed are killed by black criminals. Should tell them about Darrell Brooks Jr?

Why are leftists minds so sick so that they are capable of writing a pamlfet of propaganda like this? Above all, write their oikophobic propaganda for children?

anyone know of a book besides the bible that teaches about the importance of being a good person based NOT on the color of their skin?
