can i ask why it is so hard for some White people to believe that children do wonder why no one looks like them in the media? why is that so hard for you to believe?
Because we cannot possibly have more awareness than them. They don’t notice color as adults. No way us lowly browns are thinking this deep about reality before we get our permanent teeth.

Because it’s never entered their privileged worlds. They’ve never been that child who thinks they’re disgusting or ugly or bad because there are no representations of them
