How to Talk to Kids about Race - with Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum

This is an outstanding episode that every parent needs to hear! 

I got the chance to talk with one of the nation's leading experts on race, Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum, about how to discuss the topic of race with kids. Dr. Tatum is an author of three critically-acclaimed books on race, including Why Are All The Black Kids Sitting Together In The Cafeteria: And Other Conversations About Race. She's also the former president of Spelman College and has been fostering conversations about race for her entire career.

We dive into so much in this conversation, including why it's so hard for parents to talk about race with kids; how our early experiences with race shape our judgements; how to use every day moments as teaching points; how to talk to kids about social injustice; and so much more.

This is one you've GOT to hear! Let me know on Facebook what you think!
