- Summary:
- "A guide to raising anti-racist and socially conscious children"-- Provided by publisher.
- As the global pandemic shuttered schools across the country in 2020, parents found themselves thrust into the role of teacher. After the murder of George Floyd and the ensuing Black Lives Matter protests, many also grappled with the responsibility to teach their kids about social justice-- with few resources to guide them. Baxley, a mother of five herself, suggests that parenting is a form of activism, and encourages parents to acknowledge their influence in developing compassionate, socially-conscious kids. She helps readers take inventory of their actions and beliefs, develop self-awareness and accountability, and become role models.-- Adapted from jacket.
