Script:
Maturing in New York, you could state I was a “default liberal.” My political opinions, to the extent I had them, weren’t deeply thought out.
They just … were.
My approach was “live and let live.” Say what you want, do what you desire, just don’t physically damage or abuse another individual.
I likewise never ever believed much about my skin color– or anybody else’s. For me and my good friends, race was never more than a punchline to a joke.
After graduating from college, I got my dream job as an engineer at a significant toy company, Hasbro. Everything appeared to be relocating the ideal instructions.
And after that one day the company decided that all the engineers would have to attend a training session on implicit bias, racial awareness, and intersectionality.
This was my intro to the mad, mad world of business DEI– Diversity, Equity, Inclusion.
When I found out about the session, I rolled my eyes. All I wished to do was make cool toys for kids. But, if the company was going to make me endure some HR mumbo jumbo, I ‘d play along. The sooner I got through it, the quicker I could get back to the drawing board– literally.
So, there I was on a ZOOM call with a bunch of other employees listening to a DEI discussion entitled “Racial Biases and Children.”
Children hold racial biases? Adults possibly, but Hasbro’s clientele? It struck me as a little odd. A voice in my head said I need to tape-record the session.
The presenters, a husband-and-wife group, begun by declaring ‘white babies as young as 3 months start to display racial preferences’.
By two years, they’re omitting other kids based upon race …
By 3, they’re intentionally utilizing racist language …
By 4, they’re revealing “a strong and constant pro-white, anti-black bias.”
And, by five, they hold the very same racist biases as their parents.
You think most five-year-olds are innocent; these presenters think they’re auditioning for the KKK.
Hasbro, these mind-readers added, was intensifying the problem. Our toys skewed “white” and were for that reason perpetuating “anti-blackness.”.
” For both adults and kids,” they stated, “stereotypes in the product and marketing can enhance dangerous hostility and animosity.”.
What our toys need to be doing, they notified us, is teaching children about racial power and benefit.
