Racism Explained to My Daughter (by Tahar Ben Jelloun, 1998, ISBN 88-7754-206-3) is a book in which the author, during a demonstration against an immigration law in Paris, answers his daughter's questions about the reasons for racism.[1][2]

Overview

An explanation of the modern "trauma" that racism is to children and to help adults answer their children's questions on racism, and that children are more likely to understand that one isn't born racist, but becomes one, and adults are not likely to change their ideas.
