Cootie Shots: Theatrical Inoculations Against Bigotry for Kids, Parents, and Teachers (A Fringe Benefits Project) - Softcover
For nearly two years, Fringe Benefits, a team of professional artists, teachers, parents and youth, have been working to concoct Cootie Shots, a delicious assortment of plays, songs and interactive performance pieces that promote tolerance and celebrate diversity by presenting role models of people of many different races, classes, genders, abilities, sexual orientations, religions, shapes and sizes. In all, Cootie Shots is comprised of about 50 2-15 minute educational plays for Elementary School audiences.
The lessons covered are:
o Love is what makes a family
o Children should feel free to play with whatever toys appeal to them, study whatever subjects interest them and choose career paths unhindered by gender stereotypes
o Name-calling is never acceptable
o Putting people down because how they look and whom they love is neither kind nor fair.
The cast of characters includes:
Rapunzel
Rosa Parks
Cesar Chavez
Harvey Milk
Emily Dickinson
Alexander the Great
The Statue of Liberty
and more!

From School Library Journal:
This eclectic and refreshing collection of plays, poems, and songs was originally created and performed by the educational theater group, Fringe Benefits, in elementary schools throughout California. These pieces are designed to promote tolerance and acceptance of all people regardless of culture, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, age, ability, gender, class, or appearance. Divided into four broad chapters, the 54 selections are an assortment of workshop and brainstorming improvisations, creations of individual artists and educators, and adaptations of existing longer works that can be performed by a range of ages. The artwork, too, is a mixture, made up of children's photos and drawings, as well as work from known artists. This is a valuable resource for adults working with youngsters to help them acknowledge discrimination and prejudice in their lives and create a more understanding and compassionate world.
