Did you know about the "Doll Test?" It's a shocking experiment conducted in the 1940s that exposed the devastating effects of racism on children. Black children were shown two dolls – one Black, one white – and asked questions like, "Which doll is the nice doll?" or "Which doll looks bad?" Tragically, many of the children chose the white doll, even when asked to identify the doll that looked like them. 😭 This test revealed how deeply racism had ingrained negative self-perception in Black children, even at a very young age. It highlighted the urgent need to fight against racial bias and prejudice. The "Doll Test" is a stark reminder that we must teach our children to love themselves and embrace diversity, so no child ever feels inferior because of their skin color.
