- Teaching kids why responding, "All Lives Matter" is not OK:
"Saying "All Lives Matter" is like screaming, "I have a birthday too!" at someone else's birthday party. Everyone has a birthday, and they are all special, but today we are celebrating ______'s birthday"
(Quick note to parents: be careful when choosing books for your diverse book library. Sometimes a book may have good intentions but still uphold racist values. For example, I came across a book where it was trying to teach equity for all, however all the illustrations only showed white people solving problems for people of color and Black people (I forgot the name of the book :( )
