White Guilt
Do you like your children being shamed because of the color of His/her skin? Do feel the need to believe that white folk are the biggest racists? Do you want to raise your children in a divided country? Well this book is for you. Now you can teach your child to be a woke member of a race of oppressors? Now you can take the innocence of a child and turn them into violent racist bigots just like all white people. I’m so glad mine came with the the child size white hood so that my small child can get started early. I can’t wait till the burning cross edition comes out so my child can complete the set. What a great way to ruin my childs life. Note: putting the color of skin in front of any race of people makes you a racist.
