"I...am
increasingly aware of the need for more cultural sensitivity and education
here in Davis. Your project [Reflections] addresses this need
for education at the earliest ages in a developmentally appropriate way."
"Wow! This is a great idea. You will be helping
children to create anti-bias schema! And possibly helping adults understand
the social and political context of child development."
"As an educator, parent of two young children
and a person of color, I support [Reflections of Community] in
the work it is doing...Help young children and families to embrace diversity
is extremely important."
"It [Reflections] made me think about
things and this will affect how I parent and teach my children...so unanswered
questions are good, thought provoking activities are good...It [Reflections]
was definitely a worthwhile activitiy."
"The kids were absolutely fascinated with
all of the pictures - they loved them. We talked quite a bit about families
and people. The pictures evoked many questions and comments - we loved
these projects."
"As I parent of a young girl, this is incredibly
helpful information. When my daughter and I walk down the street...she's
full of questions...and I find myself not so 'full of answers' for her.
This information makes me feel that I am not alone in this experience
and gives concrete advice and suggestions on how to go about coming up
with some answers for her...and for me."
