The R.A.C.E. Worksheet
Researchers at the University of Minnesota have developed the Routine Anti-Racist Conversations for Early Childhood (R.A.C.E.) Worksheet as an educational tool that explains how to talk about race and ethnicity to children based on their developmental stages. This tool is a 2-page educational document outlining the developmental stage and the parent/caregiver action. Combining many resources on the understanding of race and ethnicity based on developmental stages, this tool is an easy-to-read document with clear action steps for parents/caregivers to take when starting these conversations.
