EP08 - How To Speak to Your Kids About Systemic Racism

In light of the recent tragic incidents that have occurred in Canada, our kids of all ages are asking questions about hate crimes and racism.  Why is this happening in Canada? What do we need to know?  What kind of conversations are age-appropriate?  How do we prepare our kids in a society where systemic racism is being more illuminated?  In this episode, we discuss strategies and mindset shifts necessary to equip ourselves with having this important discussion with our kids of all ages.

Be sure to listen for:

·      What is systemic racism?

·      The challenging events that have taken place in Canada in 2021 to highlight the issue of systemic racism

·      How systemic racism affects communities across the country

·      How to become aware of our own biases and conditional programming as parents

·      A discussion of how Shaista’s children’s book BACK HOME relates to the issue of systemic racism – to learn more about the book, please visit https://thrivekidsbc.ca/back-home-1

·      The top strategies to focus on in order to raise the next generation of aware, confident and empowered children who can assist in making progress on this deep-rooted issue
