Let’s Talk About Race is children book released in 2005, written by Julius Lester and illustrated by Karen Barbour

Plot


Anti-racism value

Let's Talk About Race offers an opportunity for philosophical discussion about race and how racial identity affects the way we view one another. While thinking about their own lives stories and hearing those of their friends, children may begin to find that what looks like an easy question may not have such an easy answer. This will encourage them to break down their own assumptions about race and critically think about them.[1] It helps them become more compassionate toward people and allows them to help push the lever toward true equality.  In essence, this books helps kids to see beyond the superficial outward differences and look deeper for common interests, similar likes and dislikes, values, beliefs, and attitudes.  We all have a story to tell.[2]
