laurainOP 0 Posted October 25, 2012 http://enquirer.com/...0/12/disney.jpg  this is not EXACTLY the costume, but the word font is the same   Tigger   Is it "racist" of ME to wonder if I should let my pre-school child-of-color wear a Tigger costume for Halloween? I normally ask my friends-of-color about hair and skin care, etc.... but I am embarrassed to ask if this is racist, because it almost seems racist of me to even wonder about the outfit. Before this son joined our family, my older son wore it for Halloween at the same age.... but he is my child by birth, and thus, not darkly complected.  (I actually put "racist" in quotes because I believe that there is one human race and amount of melanin should not place a person in a different "race" though it does end up assigning us to separate cultural identities).  Please do not include ANY identifying info if you decide to discuss this!!
