From the Mailbox: Stories About Children & Race Wanted

My name is Charlton McIlwain. I am a professor of media, culture & communication at New York University and co-director of the Project on Race in Political Communication.

I am interested in the ways that children and parents talk about issues of race, ethnicity, racism, etc. and am conducting a survey primarily geared to collecting funny, interesting, alarming, or challenging anecdotes that parents have about a time when their child, themselves or other children they knew made a statement or asked a question about race.

I wanted to inquire if you might be able to share a link to a survey with the members of your community.
