Abstract
An often-neglected incubator of hateful messages is children’s literature, where blatant misrepresentation or, more commonly, a lack of depiction at all, convey racist attitudes to America’s most vulnerable population: its children. Children’s literature has largely remained stagnant with depictions of African-Americans still transmitting altered historical narratives. Afterall, if children of color cannot find themselves in stories, doesn’t it communicate to them on their value in society?
