Episode 1
Many parents tend to shield their children from difficult things—deciding they’re too young to understand something—or feel unequipped to talk about the issues themselves. Guests Jordan Thierry (author, “A Kids Book About Systemic Racism”) and Shimon Cohen (social work educator, parent, and podcaster, “Doin’ The Work: Frontline Stories of Social Change”) discuss how all families can start this important conversation at home.
