It can be intimidating to have conversations with our children about racism. Sometimes we aren’t sure how to approach the subject and even wonder if it will take away their innocence. In this episode, we have a vulnerable conversation with Dr. Dana Crawford about racism and how we raise our children to erase racism.
We want to inspire all of our families to take action every day to contribute to positive change around raising anti-racist kids. Join us as we become aware of our blind spots and learn how to eliminate bias, prejudice, and racism in the home.
Join Wendy, Terry, and Dr. Dana as they explore these 3 key points:
- Teaching children to actively oppose racism does not take away their innocence.
- Helping children behave as anti-racists starts very young.
- Parents are the best people to teach their kids anti-racist behaviors.
