Synopsis
During the preschool years children form racial attitudes which directly reflect the attitudes of American society. Black Child, White Child investigates the effects of such variables as age, skin color, and sex on the racial preference formation and actual interaction patterns of 400 three-to-five year-olds. It sheds light on the effects of racism on black children and includes new findings on the role of social class in determining attitudes.

From the Back Cover
'I don't like colored people.' 'He's lazy because he's colored.' Similar attitudes have too many echoes in American society. What distinguishes these particular comments is that they were made by preschool-age children, the former by a five-year-old white, the latter by a four-year-old black. The general public might be amazed to find that statements of this type were made by such young children, yet it is now widely accepted by social scientists that racial attitudes are learned during preschool years.
