Hands Off Parents

Feeling sad and hopeless about the devastating news of this past week, Steph and Abby talk candidly about race and raising race-conscious children with the lovely Nyala Wright Nolen, a black parent who offers up some encouraging advice on how ALL parents can take a more proactive approach to combating racism. They discuss how fear and anxiety around the topic actually perpetuates the issue and, as parents, we need to go into this battle head-on: in our schools, in our homes and in our daily lives. In the end, the three ladies decide that the "golden rule" is still the best one to follow and that it's our job as parents to raise kids who are not jerks. Cue Whitney Houston!!!
