just wanted to point out a phrase in this article that underscores the claim of cultural bias in the US. " The black sheep" and "the black sheep of the family" create a negative image of the word 'black'that can develop an unconscious bias.Perhaps a phrase like "a challenging child" or 'a rebel" would give the same meaning. Words do have power. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:19B:4780:14FB:5D1E:6FF5:E60F:F708 (talk) 00:40, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Bei Bei Chow

[edit]

The character of Bei Bei Chow seems very closely based on the life of Bei Bei Shuai. I haven't researched it closely yet but it may be worth including in the Inspiration section. (https://www.barnesandnoble.com/review/little-fires-everywhere)
