Download or read book Black Child, White Child written by Judith D. R. Porter and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1971 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'I don't like colored people.' 'He's lazy because he's colored.' Similar attitudes have too many echoes in American society. What distinguishes these particular comments is that they were made by preschool-age children, the former by a five-year-old white, the latter by a four-year-old black. The general public might be amazed to find that statements of this type were made by such young children, yet it is now widely accepted by social scientists that racial attitudes are learned during preschool years.
