Sesame Workshop, the creator of the children’s show “Sesame Street,” is introducing two new characters to its cast of muppets to teach children about “racial literacy.”
The nonprofit announced last week that a black father and son, Elijah and Wesley Walker, would be joining the show as part of a broader effort by Sesame Workshop to combat racism and advance “racial justice.” The Walker muppets are one part of the organization’s “Coming Together” initiative, the company announced in a press release.
