National Association for the Education of Young Children
All children have the right to equitable learning opportunities that
help them achieve their full potential as engaged learners and valued
members of society. Thus, all early childhood educators have a professional
obligation to advance equity. They can do this best when they are
effectively supported by the early learning settings in which they work and
when they and their wider communities embrace diversity and full inclusion
as strengths, uphold fundamental principles of fairness and justice, and
work to eliminate structural inequities that limit equitable learning
opportunities.

Is it Time to Say R.I.P. to ‘POC’?
Code Switch
Meraji, S.M., Escobar, N., &
Devarajan, K.
On the Code Switch podcast, we often use the term
“people of color.” And it’s not something we thought a ton about until the
Black Lives Matter protests reignited in May, and we saw a refrain across
social media, particularly among Black people: Stop calling me a person of
color. Many felt that people using the term POC were (intentionally or not)
sidestepping the truth: that certain effects of racism — things like mass
incarceration, police violence, inability to access good health care —
disproportionately affect Black and Indigenous people. Not all “people of
color.” The popularization of BIPOC only furthered the debate. Was this
relatively newer term highlighting the particular experiences of Black and
Indigenous folks? Or was it an homage to wokeness with no real teeth? As it
goes with language, even terms that have been created with the best of
intentions can morph in meaning. So on this week’s episode, we asked
academics, writers and our listeners some big questions: What do we mean
when we say “people of color”? Why do some of us identify with that term?
Why does it annoy so many other people? Is it time to say R.I.P. to POC?
And, if so, is BIPOC the new kid on the block?
