Did You Know What a DWEM Is?

Did you know what a DWEM is?

Yesterday,I was asking my son for a word that begins with the letters "dw". I was particularly looking for a word that I could illustrate for a six year old. Of course, we thought of dwell/dwelling, but I didn't think that would work for what I needed. So my bright son went to get the dictionary and came across the acronym DWEM. It means "Dead White European Male". Interesting, but I still don't think I better use that as a illustration for a six year old! :)
