Talking with Kids about Racial Injustice
When I was young, my mother and I lived in eastern Texas. We enjoyed our lives there, feeding our neighbor’s horses, eating wild blackberries, and living surrounded by nature. Until James Byrd Jr. was murdered by a hate group near our home on June 7, 1998. My mother moved us across the country in hopes that I would live a full, happy life.
