Why Mosaic Mix is a great company that is doing more than just selling ethnically diverse clothing

I think that few people take into account a lot of the small details of the world around them. I have posted a few times in the past about one of our clients, Mosaic Mix, and how much we really like them but instead of just talking about why they are great clients lets take a look at why what they are doing is also as awesome as they are.

Many people would not see the reason for needing ethnically diverse clothing. If you had asked me if there was a need 3 years ago I would probably of not seen as much of reason as I do now. One night while watching a documentary on T.V. I saw a few clips from a video made by a young girl named Kiri Davis, then a high school student. After seeing a few clips of her documentary I went and found the full film, which is only about seven minutes long, and it is really a sad, eye opening short film. The video is at the bottom of this post so you can see it, it really is only about seven minutes long and I recommend that you watch it.

In the 40’s a man named Kenneth Clark conducted an experiment in which two dolls were presented to an African-American child and they are asked questions such as “Which doll is the good doll”, or “Which doll would you want to be” and the majority of the children chose the white doll. So Kiri Davis recreated the experiment to see if things had changed in the last 60 years, and she got very similar results.

So I hope you are starting to see my point about why Morinee and Richard Terry are doing a good thing with their business. They both realize the need for clothing that will not only allow children and parents to feel good but will also help promote self-esteem and build a better self image in children. I think it is the small companies like Mosaic Mix that may just have a shot at making sure if we do this experiment again in another 20 or 40 years that the results can finally change.

So head on over to Mosaic Mix and show some support for them, if you don’t need to buy any children’s or tween’s clothes then I am sure they would appreciate you sending them an email, or just letting some of your friends with children know about their company and their site.
