i guarantee there’s no better way to pass your anxieties on to the next generation than by writing children’s books totally suffused with them

the most antiracist possible children’s book would be some shit like “wow look at all these cool fucking rocks,” you want to get children concretely engaged with the world and *not* with their identities

autistic kids matter too and the way you communicate that is by showing them cool rocks and shit 😤
Sigh. This is some "All Lives Matter" thread shit.

Sometimes kids learn "that teacher doesn't treat me like the other kids because I'm brown." And that's where books that focus on racial or cultural identity are helpful.
To dismantle the weight of that knowledge upon the psyche of a very impressionable child.
