Overview

Caregivers will benefit from activities and suggestions that originated with informative, heart-centered workshops

Equip your kids to be change-makers with this guide to social justice parenting.

In 2015, social justice educator and activist Angela Berkfield held her first Parenting for Social Justice workshop. Now it is time to share those tools and inspiration. Using plain language, this guide discusses race, class, gender, disability, healing justice, and collective liberation, initiating age-appropriate and engaging conversations with kids about social justice issues.

Learn to navigate difficult topics and raise socially-minded kids. Parenting 4 Social Justice offers:

  • Realistic prompts and examples of actual conversations
  • Tools for taking action as families
  • Resources for further learning and activities

This is an excellent resource for parents who want to equip their children to understand and process the state of the world around them, to engage and take action as young people today, and to prepare them for the future that lays ahead of them.
