"I know there are Children , the engagement with black history for the First Time in her life," he says.

He says that while his three Children , all under five years of age, are too young to have a direct discussion about George Floyd, he knows many other black Children were affected.

He quotes his friend, the daughter, was left in tears, wondering whether she was insecure about her skin and whether you should be worried about her.

"It's an awakening, perhaps, for The Children , But , unfortunately, a stressful, really deep stressful, because it is a physical experience. You can't escape disembody themselves. "

Denis, of west London, says, equips his Children for what it is like to Grow Up in the UK with dark skin, is part of his job as parents.

he says he was stopped and searched many times by The Police , both as an adult and a child, and says he will "unfortunately" have to prepare for his four-year-old son for the same treatment.

He expects talks to crop-up with his daughters, especially around body image, there is a lack of representation In Society .

His oldest daughter was "thrilled", he says, if you One Day was taught by a gym teacher in high school, was also of mixed heritage. She told her father, without being asked, "teacher, today was hair like mine, and skin that looked like mine."

Georgena Clarke from Cheshire says that you have similar conversations with your seven-year-old twins.

The issue of skin color first of your daughter. She says the lack of diversity in your local area led to her going through a phase of waving to every black person on The Street , because "she saw her so rarely, she thought, everybody who was black, was with us."

she was not the only Black Child in her class, And One day, five years old, she refused to Get Out of The Car , if you said in school: "Mama, I want to be the only different".

"I was totally floored," says Georgena. "I don't know what to say, at this moment In Time , and I knew then, that I have not done a good enough job.

"I had previously said," it is because, you're special, you're the only one, the brown, and you're simply different than all the others', But that was not good enough for you Now . "

Georgena Clarke says that she bought Her Daughter a black doll, But she wanted to play, you see that in Disney movies

Georgena explained to Her Daughter that mummy's parents were African and her daddy were the parents of The West Indian Islands, and everyone in those countries, "looks like we". She used YouTube videos to prove it.

"I've never seen someone grab a concept so much to The Point where everyone you met after that, she had to tell them where she was. She was really proud of it. "

Georgena says she accepts their innocence, have come to "a crashing end at some point," But you want Children to stay as long as possible.

"I want you to say proud of the fact that you are black, and also not to feel that their difference is negative considered," she said.

"If I tell you, racism, and bring you into their world-the fact that Some People do not like them because of their difference that could impact on your self-esteem. "

"He looks in The Mirror and says 'I love my hair, I love my skin, I jump up love my, my, I'm a bit'. He says all of these things Every Day , so that what is in his head, if he was ever to be challenged. "
