Um guys, it's not easy being a minority and having so much literature out there that you can't feel comfortable sharing with your children because of it's racist issues.

They did the black and white doll test again not to long ago and little black girls still want the white doll more than the black doll because it's still reinforced in society that being white is better. Kids pick that up and books like Tin Tin don't help.

I'm not saying the books should be censored but to dismiss the concerns about the book I think is wrong.
