‘Equity and You: Raising Anti-Racist Children’
A Virtual Town Hall
Tuesday, September 27, 2022
12 pm – 1:15 pm ET
Our “Equity & You” series this year explores how each of us can personally be an agent for change right where we are. We invite you to join this month’s virtual town hall, Raising Anti-Racist Children, where we will discuss developmentally appropriate strategies for teaching children about racism, empowering them with tools to recognize and call it out no matter their age, and intentionally creating opportunities to build, exercise and support inclusivity and equity in their environments.
The program included:
- A conversation between Dr. Ibram X. Kendi and Dr. Eduardo Ochoa Jr. on Dr. Kendi’s newest book, How to Raise an Antiracist
- An opportunity to learn about strategies and tools for engaging children in antiracism with Tanya Nixon Silberg
Dr. Ibram X. Kendi, Founding Director of the Center for Antiracist Research at Boston University, author, and MacArthur Fellow
Tanya Nixon-Silberg, Founding Director of Little Uprisings
Moderated by Dr. Eduardo Ochoa Jr., Arkansas Site Principal Investigator of Children’s HealthWatch, pediatrician, and Vice-Chair of Diversity and Health Equity at University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
