Kids and Race: Changing the Narrative
February 12, 2018 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Parent Education Lecture hosted by NSC Cooperative Preschools
Changing the Narrative teaches parents and educators how the stories we don’t know we’re telling our children have the greatest impact on their racial identity. This is an introductory workshop, appropriate for audiences with a wide range of experience in antiracism/anti-bias work. Adult content covers Narrative/Counter-Narrative, Race in Media, Racial Identity Development, Colorblindness and Racial Identity Education, Action Steps, and Q&A.
Jasen Frelot is the Executive Director of Kids and Race, a program which empowers adults and children to take responsibility for dismantling racism through honest conversations and loving action. He is also the founding director of Columbia City Preschool of Arts and Culture, an early learning program that seeks to normalize and integrate conversations about race and inclusion into an open, affirming learning
environment.
This event is free and open to the public!
