In 2020, exploring the harsh complexities of racism and systemic injustice is still a painful task for most adults, but how do our children process these concepts? How should we have these difficult conversations with our children, and how can we make sure that they feel empowered to change society as they grow?
Dr. Ibram X. Kendi joins INFORUM to teach us how. Kendi is a New York Times bestselling author, an acclaimed academic and a leading voice on racial justice in America. His newest work is a children's book titled Antiracist Baby, and in it he uses playful images and straightforward language to introduce complicated topics like power, racial disparity and antiracism for readers of all ages.
Dr. Kendi joins New York Times best-selling author and former Stanford University dean of freshmen Julie Lythcott-Haims, to explain how we can help future generations understand the true meaning of equality and also give them the tools necessary to fight for it.
