Let's Talk! Talking About Race with Children in Museums
Description:
The National Museum of African American History and Culture recently released the web portal, "Let’s Talk! Talking About Race". Educators from the museum have been examining the construction of race, its role in American culture, and impact on human development for nearly a decade. The online portal provides digital tools, online exercises, video instructions, scholarly articles, and more than 100 multi-media resources tailored for educators, parents and caregivers—and individuals committed to racial equality. Join educators from the museum’s early childhood education team for a discussion about the impact of race on children, talking about race starting in infancy, and providing anti-racist/anti-bias experiences for children in museums. Learn how you can foster constructive discussions on one of the nation's most challenging topics--racism and its corrosive impact.
