E1: Talking to Young Kids About the Uprising Following George Floyd’s Murder - Part 1 of 3

We have been living in “COVID” times now for five months, seeing the death toll continue to rise in the United States - currently standing at more than 170,000 deaths. And our country’s other pandemic, racism, is alive and well. Breonna Taylor was murdered by police while sleeping in her home in February and George Floyd was killed, very publicly, by police in May. In this inaugural episode, SooJin and Hannah bring in Daniel Shannon who is a dad of three and a Diversity, Equity & Inclusion expert to share stories and process this moment. We define racial reckoning and go deep on ways to talk with elementary school-aged kids about racism. Thank you for listening and making a commitment to antiracist parenting!Daniel Shannon's website: https://www.danielshannonspeaks.com/

Om Podcasten

Welcome to the Antiracist Parenting Podcast™! We are SooJin Pate and Hannah Carney, two parents who are committed to raising antiracist children and being antiracist ourselves. We are deeply committed to this work and want to build a community that will help parents gain confidence in raising a generation of antiracist kids by talking with kids about race, racism, white supremacy, and what it means to be an antiracist. We’re coming to you not as experts but as parents who want to share our missteps and successes in raising antiracist children in the hopes that others will do the same. We are learning with you, answering your questions and highlighting a variety of amazing guests who will help us expand our thinking. We all play an important role in making our world more equitable in our spheres of influence. Thank you for joining us!
