About the event

About our Course:

Too often we have heard participants in seminars bring up their challenges and successes talking to their kids about race.  As parents ourselves at Racially Conscious Collaboration, and former educators, we have successfully raised our own children to be able to sustain healthy conversations and action around race since they were little kids in school.  Join us as parents, family members, and guardians of children as we examine how to talk to kids about race, and even raise anti-racist children.  The research says children do see race, but far too many of us struggle to talk to our kids about race believing that we are protecting them.  Sometimes we hear parents telling their children that race doesn't matter, we are all the same.  In our experience, and in the research, we have found that race matters in parenting.
