Let Kids Lead

For older children, a great way to get them to engage with conversations about race is to ask them how they're feeling and why. "Try to get to why we're forming opinions and how those feelings are coming to be," Faber says. This not only keeps kids interested, but also helps them apply concepts like white privilege to their real life. Ali says she also likes to ask kids to come up with their own ways to address racism, getting them involved in the issues and helping them identify ways in which they can help.
