Anti-Racism: Where Do I Start?
This episode answers one of the most common questions I receive: Where do I start? Press play if you’re taking your first step on your anti-racist journey or if you’ve been at it for a while and want to bring the people you love along with you.
In this episode I share three episodes from the First Name Basis archives that will help jumpstart your anti-racist journey.
Ally Elementary
Registration for Ally Elementary and Ally Elementary Jr is now open!
These programs give parents and teachers a practical, interactive way to implement the anti-racist strategies that we discuss on the First Name Basis Podcast.
These programs allow parents and teachers to work together with their children to create a culture of anti-racism in their home or classroom. We use hands-on activities to teach our children about everything from the untold story of how race was created to how they can disrupt racism in their everyday lives. I am so excited to join you as you make a meaningful transformation and improve your communities through anti-racist action.
