Were you raised to believe that we should all be colorblind? Do you have questions and concerns about whether, how, or when you should talk to your own children about race? Join social justice educator Meredith Moore for a workshop, brought to you by the Peirce FORJ committee, designed to help parents develop the skill and confidence to discuss race with children. Learn why it’s important to address race with children of all ages, and explore and practice strategies for initiating race talk proactively. You’ll walk away with helpful resources, including scripts and conversation starters that you can use to begin conversations in your own home.
To sign up for this program, please fill out this registration form. The Zoom link will be sent a few days before the event.
