The Little Black Sambo is a wildly racist, and problematic children's book written by Helen Bannerman. The book was first published in 1899, and it achieved international levels of success almost immediately. It even recieved an animated film adaptation. It quickly worked its way into Canadian classrooms and libraries, where teachers praised the book for its representation, and it acted as a vessel for implementing racist ideals and imagery into the minds and hearts of non-Black children at an early age. In 1944, Daniel Braithwaite began his quest for Toronto to be the first school division in the world to ban this book from all of it's classrooms and libraries. It took him over 12 years to accomplish this, and yet he never gave up.
