Subject: (NAME-MCE) Looking for good anti-racist books for children



Hi everyone

I'm working on a nonfiction book for elementary school kids about 
racism.

Can anyone recommend any good anti-racist books, graphic novels, games, 
websites, or films for kids - fiction or nonfiction? (note: there is a 
difference between "antiracist" and "multicultural.")

Most of the books I've come across are very bland and anti-historical 
in their analysis.

Are there holes in anti-racist educational material that need to be 
filled? What are you looking for that you have not been able to find?

Thanks
