[quote=Anonymous]You’re on the right track op by being thoughtful about this and like others have said, it’s really important to talk about. Here is a good book that can help you figure out how to have some of these conversations: https://thebarefootmommy.lpages.co/antiracist_kids/ Also Your Parenting Mojo has some great podcasts on this. Here is an introductory one on just the basics of why research supports not taking a “colorblind” approach and how if as white parents we don’t talk about this, our children are much more likely to internalize stereotypes etc: https://yourparentingmojo.com/captivate-podcast/006-wait-is-my-toddler-racist/ That one is more on the “why” and is gears a little towards younger kids. If you scroll down here there are two more specific on talking with your kids about race: https://yourparentingmojo.com/captivate-tag/culture-race/ These are a good start but the book is helpful.
