Sesame Workshop Vows Bias Training Amid More Vids of Mistreated Black Kids

Sesame Place might not be too friendly a neighborhood after all — more videos are surfacing showing the park’s costumed characters acting messed up to Black kids … and now the parent company’s baling water.

A few other clips have come to light since the initial video showing Rosita apparently snubbing a couple little Black girls at Sesame Place in PA … and these new ones seem to demonstrate more of the same — namely, that the mascots kinda mistreat or ignore children of color.

One, in particular, is pretty nuts … it shows one of the Honkers rushing a very young girl, who’s African-American, and literally knocking her down with its protruding belly.

Another video shows Bert going down a line of kids and high-fiving them, but then blatantly refusing to do so with an older Black girl — who looks back at the camera shocked.

There are even more accounts of similar behavior … but none seem to have been more crystalized than what went viral this weekend. Sesame Place said it was a misinterpretation/misunderstanding, and they’d apologized to the fam to make it right.

Of course, the family isn’t buying it and is weighing their legal options amid suspicions of racism … as TMZ first reported.

Now, in light of all these other videos — which appear to show a pattern of this sort of thing at Sesame Palace — the parent company Sesame Workshop, producers of the TV series “Sesame Street,” is promising to tighten things up with bias training … plus a thorough review of how the park workers are engaging with guests.

They stop short of saying the recorded incidents were intentional — which bias training wouldn’t really fix, frankly — but at least it’s on their radar, and everyone else’s too.
