Raising antiracist children is a noble goal for any parent, caregiver or educator, but it can be hard to know where to start. Let Britt Hawthorne, a nationally recognized teacher and advocate, be your guide. "Raising Antiracist Children" acts as an interactive guide for strategically incorporating the tools of inclusivity into everyday life and parenting. In her book, Hawthorne breaks down antiracist parenting into four comprehensive sections which you'll learn about in this webinar:

• Healthy Bodies — Establish a safe and body-positive home environment to combat stereotypes and create boundaries.
• Radical Minds — Encourage children to be agents of change with scripts for teaching advocacy, giving and taking productive feedback and becoming a co-conspirator for change.
• Conscious Shopping — Raise awareness of how local shopping can empower or hinder a community’s ability to thrive and teaching readers of all ages how to create shopping habits that support their values.
• Thriving Communities — Acknowledge the personal power we have to shape our schools, towns and worlds with exercises for instigating change.
