Discover a gentle yet honest children’s book that guides parents through one of the most important conversations they can have with their children. Written to explain racism in a soft, age-appropriate way, this book covers the origins of slavery and the history of systemic racism in America — and equips families to talk about it together.
When a child asks, “Mommy, what’s racism?” — how do you answer? Mommy What’s Racism by Robert Carpenter walks parents step by step through the conversation he had with his own children about racism: what it is, when it started, and how it became woven into American culture. Through soft storytelling, the book touches on the history of slavery, the people who fought against it, and what systematic racism means today. This is a good read for any child who has experienced racism — or who is simply curious about it.
This book is ideal for parents, educators, and children who want to understand racism, its roots, and why conversations about it matter — especially for the next generation.
Robert Carpenter is committed to creating educational, inspirational, and family-oriented books that encourage learning, personal growth, and positive values. A portion of all book proceeds supports the outreach efforts of the RH Foundation.
