Toi Thomas wrote Why Are You Afraid? in response to the Black Lives Matter movement to start a conversation with young children about racism in all its forms. This is a crucial conversation to have with the children in your life, no matter their age. No child is too young to learn that racism is wrong, what POC (People of Color) experience because of racism, and that POC are just like them. This should be taught from the beginning (and needs to be) with the basics like colors, numbers, and letters. It's that important.
Written in a way that all kids will be able to understand, this story is a great first step to introduce this topic to young children and opens the door to further conversations on the part of educators, parents, and guardians.
