Sesame Place Lawsuit 😱 Family Sues Sesame Place For Racism To Black Children Rosita” Costume Hug

As many of you know, over the weekend, Sesame Place in Philadelphia was put on blast after a mother shared a video where her children were seemingly being ignored by the performer in the Rosita costume. It didn't take too long for other parents to share their videos as they noticed a pattern and called the park's performers out for their treatment of Black children. Now it looks like the family from the viral video has hired an attorney and will be taking things a step further.

According to TMZ B’Ivory LaMarr, the attorney hired by the family, shares they want to investigate the incident by interviewing those who were also in attendance at the park, as well as other families that have similar videos.

LaMarr said, "While we hate to rush to judgment to consider 'race' as the motivating factor to explain the performer's actions, such actions both before and after the young girl's request only lead to one conclusion."

After a mother claimed her daughters were ignored at a Sesame Place Philadelphia parade, the company responds and says the ‘no’ hand gesture was in response to someone in the crowd asking for their child to be held during a photo. The family has also been invited to visit again.

A mother is not happy after a recent trip to Sesame Place! She is calling them out after a person in a “Rosita” costume is seen dismissing two Black children who wanted a hug.
