For over fifteen years, researchers have described a crisis in our nations' early learning classrooms. Hundreds of children are expelled from childcare and preschool every day; a rate nearly three times that of kindergarten-twelfth grade students.

Just as children learn to walk and talk, they likewise come to understand race in a series of predictable stages. Based on Marguerite A.
