Critical race studies

Hello there! Critical race studies is like a big puzzle that helps us understand why people of different colors and backgrounds are treated differently in society.

You know how sometimes your friends might call you a name or make fun of you for something you can't change, like your skin color or the way you speak? Well, critical race studies helps us look at why some people are treated unfairly just because of how they look or where they come from.

It's kind of like a big magic book that helps us understand the history of how people have been treated unfairly in America because of their race. And by understanding that history, we can work to change things so that everyone is treated fairly.

One idea in critical race studies is something called systemic racism. That means that even if people don't mean to be unfair, the whole system of society is set up in a way that makes it harder for people who look different from each other to be treated equally.

But don't worry, lots of people are working to change things by studying critical race studies and learning how to make the world a fairer and better place.
