How to Raise an Antiracist
Tags

Description
The tragedies and reckonings around racism have created a crisis for parents and caregivers: How do we talk to our children about racism? How do we teach them to be antiracist? How are kids at different ages experiencing race? How can we inspire them to be better and make the world better?
Ibram X. Kendi found himself avoiding these questions as he anticipated the birth of his first child, fearing racism would stain her innocence. But research and experience changed his mind. He realized that raising a child to be antiracist would actually protect her, preserving her innocence and joy. Teaching about the reality of racism and the myth of race provides a protective education in our diverse and unequal world.
Kendi combines a century of scientific research with a personal narrative, exploring stages of child development from pregnancy to teenager. It is never too early to start raising young people to be antiracist.
