Experts in child psychology say it s important for parents to talk with their children about racism broadly, and about the Chauvin trial specifically. Colorblind parenting essentially says, Oh, we re all the same, color doesn t matter. Whereas we know that in the United States, color in fact does matter, said Marietta Collins, an associate professor of family medicine and psychiatry at the Morehouse School of Medicine and the author of Something Happened in Our Town (A Child s Story About Racial Injustice). So we advocate, instead, for race-conscious parenting, where you talk about race, celebrate similarities in race, expose your child to differences in race, expose your child to the richness of diversity that exists.
