Raising Anti-Racist Kids Part 2 of 2
We are excited to bring you Part 2 in our Parent Talks podcast on Raising Anti-Racist Kids. In this episode’s continuing conversations, the families share tips for parents on teaching their kids about race, racism and how to be anti-racist. And Michelle Hughes from Bridge Communications discusses the concept of white privilege and how white families can use that privilege as allies to families of color.
