COOP: The Arizona Department of Education has created an “equity” toolkit claiming that babies show the first signs of racism at three months old and that white children “remain strongly biased in favor of whiteness” by age five.

Let’s review the resources in the toolkit. 🧵 pic.twitter.com/g4Sk6X0VuO

“Silence about race reinforces racism by letting children draw their own conclusions based on what they see,” the program says. A graphic for the program also states, “They’re not too young to talk about race!”

According to the Daily Wire,

“The graphic shows the linear aging of a child and details how parents should talk about race and racism at each stage of their childhood. Parents are told to talk to their three-month-olds about racism because “babies look more at faces that match the race of their caregivers.

At the age of two, the graphic claims that children use race ‘to reason about people’s behaviors’ and, by 30 months, they allegedly use race to choose their friends. By ages four and five, children allegedly become racially prejudiced. 

According to the graphic, by the time children reach kindergarten they can become full-blown racists. Kindergarteners allegedly ‘show many of the same racial attitudes that adults in our culture hold — they have already learned to associate some groups with higher status than others.’ Parents are encouraged to have conversations with kindergarteners to discuss how interracial friendships can improve their racial attitudes.”
