Conversations with Children: Let’s Talk About Race and Racism

Tue, May 4, 2021 4:00pm-5:30pm PT

Children’s understanding of racial categories develop early and are influenced by the narratives offered by the adults in their lives. It is vital that adults are having conversations with children as they try to make sense of what they are observing in their family, neighborhoods, schools, and communities. Through these conversations, families have the power to raise a generation of critical thinkers who strive for social justice and equity.
