Conversation to Disrupt Racial Realities in Early Childhood

Presenter: 

Hilltop Children's Center

To adapt to the constantly changing and complex political and social realities of 2021, early childhood education leaders need to integrate learning from their experience back into their practice and be able to fine-tune the assumptions and theories that drive their work. This facilitated session is for people interested in moving past teaching political correctness towards teaching socio-cognitive conflict and intellectual growth.

Come spend an evening reflecting on our own biases so we can teach anti-bias and anti-racist principles. Together, we will dialogue, explore, question, reflect, and grow in our understanding of how white culture undermines our work in achieving liberation for the next generation of artists, inventors, scientists, politicians, thinkers, and social activists.

There will be a link to a video to watch before the program that will be sent out to registrants.

Register online.

Target audience:

Educators, Parents
