Greetings! We have received a considerable amount of requests for assistance, direction, and insight as communities are grappling with the racial realities that founded the United States; these realities have been continuously propagated through the country’s most powerful systems (e.g. media, school, government, etc.)
As an immediate response to the requests, we have created this working document for the compilation and organization of age-appropriate resources that facilitate constructive conversations about race with children from infancy into adolescence. When using or sharing any particular resource, please be sure to cite the respective organization or individual(s).
Additionally, Parent LAB offers a series of research- and play-based workshops that facilitate discussions on race, childhood and culture. These workshops use an anti-racist, historical lens to center and amplify Black family voices and experiences in the United States. See atlparentlikeaboss.com for more information.
EmbraceRace
As US racial divisions and inequities grow sharper and more painful, the work of envisioning and creating systems of authentic racial inclusion and belonging in the United States remains work in progress. We believe that reversing the trend must begin in our homes, schools, and communities with our children’s hearts and minds.
