A mother was shocked when her eight-year-old grandchild reported that the daycare was denying her sunscreen because she was black. To make matters worse, the daycare segregated the black and white kids on a field trip and forced the black kids to sit in the sun.
Grandma was furious and wrote a bad Yelp review, but the daycare owner threatened to fire the workers if she didn’t take it down. Grandma is now considering taking her story to the news.
Is Grandma right to take action, or is she being a Karen?

Is speaking out against racism a case of “Karen-ing”?

Is speaking out against racism a “Karen” move?
A parent recently shared the troubling experience their child was having at daycare on Reddit . The child had asked for sunscreen but was told that black people do not need sunscreen. On a field trip, the black children were made to sit in the sun, with the white children in the shade.
When the parent contacted the daycare owner, they were told they were blowing it out of proportion and when the parent posted a negative Yelp review, they were asked to take down their review. The parent was then told by their friend that they were being a “Karen” for complaining publicly.
In the context of this post , what does it mean to be a “Karen”? Is it justified for the parent to speak out against racism?
As we move into the comments and reactions section, we’ll explore the answers to these questions.
