Talking to your kids and teens about literally anything can be awkward. Luckily, teaching your kids and teens about antiracism doesn’t have to be any more awkward than other conversations.
East City Bookshop is excited to partner with Keiana Mayfield, MSW to offer Raising Antiracist Kids, an interactive online workshop designed to help you engage in conversations about race and racism with your family.
Divided into three age ranges, Raising Antiracist Kids tailors each workshop to the unique needs and concerns present during each developmental period. The discussion-based workshop will last approximately 90 minutes, and is intended for the adults. Each class is limited to 7 to 10 families; multiple caregivers may participate in a household.
- Monday, October 12 at 1:00 PM: Raising Antiracist Kids (0-4 years old)
- Wednesday, October 14 at 8:00 PM: Raising Antiracist Kids (5-11 years old)
- Friday, October 16 at 8:00 PM: Raising Antiracist Kids (12+ years old)
For adults, Mayfield wil lead a discussion-based workshop, you will begin to identify some of the barriers to being antiracist, while learning basic tools to dismantle and unpack them.
