In their so-called doll test, pioneering Black psychologists Kenneth and Mamie Clark investigated the effects of segregation by presenting children with two Black and two white baby dolls. \"Show me the doll that you like best,\" they said. \"Show me the doll that looks like you.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTheir research showed that segregation harmed Black children. When the \u003cem\u003eBrown v. Board of Education\u003c\/em\u003e case came along to challenge school segregation, Kenneth Clark testified about the doll test. His testimony was compelling, and in 1954, the US Supreme court ultimately declared school segregation illegal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNarrated by dolls, this book-length poem by acclaimed author Carole Boston Weatherford introduces Kenneth and Mamie Clark and their powerful research to young readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.36 x 11.23 x 9.53 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 05, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42725007687743,"sku":"9781728477930","price":22.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/976466949e4e4a755d163110f44d85bd.webp?v=1765104778","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/the-doll-test-choosing-equality-hardcover","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
