Can a Black child change her skin color to white by scrubbing it with soap and water?
This was the hurtful suggestion made by Jessie, who is white, to Ariana, who is Black, in a real-life incident at a preschool. "If you scrub your hands with soap and water, you can be white like me," Jessie told Ariana.
What began as a painful moment for Ariana and her family became a powerful lesson in identity, self-worth, belonging, Black beauty, and the value of diversity.
A Must-Read for All Families, Children, and Educators
With vivid illustrations and heartfelt storytelling, No Scrub: My Black Skin Makes Me Beautiful inspires readers to embrace self-acceptance and appreciate diversity. The preschool teacher’s metaphor of crayons in a box -- each color contributing to the beauty of a picture -- teaches Jessie an important truth: Our differences make the world vibrant and extraordinary.
