Dear white parents with babies or toddlers, please buy your little ones Black and Brown baby dolls. You're not doing them a favor when all they see is whiteness. Tell your babies how beautiful that Black or Brown doll is. Introduce your babies to story books with diverse people.
@CanadasLifeline Fairly new donor here (3x so far) the masking policy made me feel safe donating much needed blood during a pandemic. Please don’t do this, guarantee I won’t be back unless everyone masks!
