E-raamat: Stories from the Brownie Book

This was inevitable in our role as newspaperbut what effect must it have on our children? To educate them in human hatred is more disastrous to them than to the hated; to seek to raise them in ignorance of their racial identity and peculiar situation is inadvisableimpossiblethere seems but one alternative: We shall publish hereafter not one Children's Number a year, but twelve! Messrs. DuBois and Dill will issue in November, in co-operation with the crisis, but as an entirely separate publication, a little magazine for childrenfor all children, but especially forours, the Children of the Sun. It will be called, naturally,The Brownies' Book, and as we have advertised, It will be a thing of Joy and Beauty, dealing in Happiness, Laughter and Emulation, and designed especially for Kiddies from Six to Sixteen. It will seek to teach Universal Love and Brotherhood for all little folkblack and brown and yellow and white.Stories From the Brownies Bookis a new collection of tales celebrating African American childrens literature and the groundbreaking work of the N.A.A.C.P.
