Kids & Race: Changing the Narrative

Race still matters in America today. How can we raise children who go beyond the superficial notion of colorblindness to see and challenge the ways that privilege still shapes our lives? How can parents prepare to seize the teachable moments that arise when we least expect them?

13point6 and Bothell Alliance for Justice is joining Kids and Race to cohost this workshop. Join for a 3 hours workshop specially suited for preschool through elementary aged children, their parents and their educators. Children and adults have separate programs to engage them. Snacks will be provided for the children.

This workshop will focus on identity development and cultural norms. Presenters will discuss how narratives and counter-narratives shape our children’s personal and racial identity development.
