This week, the U.S. Department of Education announced it was firing nearly 50% of its workforce. This all comes on the heels of President Trump’s ongoing efforts to eliminate the DOE and give its responsibilities to the states. On today’s Feedback Friday edition of “Closer Look,” show host Rose Scott asked listeners this question: Do you have faith Georgia can shoulder the responsibilities of the DOE without federal oversight and resources? Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum, president emerita of Spelman College and author of the New York Times bestseller “Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria? And Other Conversations about Race,” and Tanya Washington, a professor of law at Georgia State University, added their perspectives to the discussion.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The 1954 Supreme Court ruling was intended to end racial segregation in America's public education system. Yet 70 years later, public schools remain deeply segregated by race and socioeconomic status. Here's the question: Are our public schools truly diverse and equitable for all, or have systemic barriers and persistent resistance hindered progress? For “Closer Look's” first PRX national show, Rose Scott delves into the long-term impact of this historic ruling as it relates to the current state of public education and the nationwide Black teacher shortage. Guests include: Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum, president emerita of Spelman College and author of the New York Times bestseller “Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria? And Other Conversations about Race,” Dr. Kamau Bobb, founding senior director of the Constellations Center for Equity in Computing at Georgia Tech, C. Eileen Welch Watts, former teacher and president and board chair for the Durham Colored Library, Inc., and current teachers Asia Anderson and Alexis Kelly.

When you think of school safety, it's hard not to think of school shootings. And there is no question that gun violence in schools is tragic, harrowing, and gut wrenching. It shatters our vision of schools as a sanctuary. And yet, gun violence, while way too common, is still exceedingly rare, and there are many ways that kids are harmed in our schools on a daily basis that don't generate the same attention.  Dr. Meg Caven, a passionate educational researcher, focuses on issues of safety and equity in the educational landscape. With particular attention on school discipline and its impact on racial inequity, Dr. Caven's work highlights the importance of addressing social and emotional safety in addition to physical safety. As a queer-identified individual, she draws from her own experiences of freedom and safety in her educational journey to advocate for a more holistic approach to safety in schools. In this episode, Dr. Caven pushes us beyond the one-dimensional conversation around gun violence in our schools, to consider a broader and more expansive view of what it means to be safe in school. From mental health to emotional health, from protection from bullying and structural violence, from disrupting the school to prison pipeline, she argues that a nuanced, multi-dimensional view of school safety is what is required if we truly care about equity, and want to see schools live up to the ideal of being incubators of democracy.    LINKS: Dr. Caven's article in Kappan The Education Development Center Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum's quote about the smog of racism is from Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria Ani DiFranco - To The Teeth News story on a "rapid deploy bullet-proof safe room" for schools  ACTION STEPS: Expand your idea of safety  Talk to the young people and other caregivers in your life about what it means to feel safe at school Don't use "safety" as an excuse to not enroll in a particular school Engage in conversations in your school communities about what I means for kids to feel safe enough to feel free to discover themselves Use these links or start at our Bookshop.org storefront to support local bookstores, and send a portion of the proceeds back to us.

We're back!! Kicking off Season 9 with a conversation between Val and Andrew about transitions. We have just transitioned back to school, and this year feels the most "normal" in quite some time. Additionally, we both have kids who have transitioned to new schools, including the transition to middle school for Andrew's oldest, and high school for Val's oldest. We reflect on new forms of parent engagement in these new schools, how we are thinking about empowering our kids to make their own choices while still upholding our family values, and the importance of continuing conversations about race with our kids as they get older. Plus, we have many of your thoughts about this time of transition. We LOVE hearing from you, so please continue to send us voice memos - just find the voice memo app on your phone, record whatever is on your mind, and email it to us at podcast@integratedschools.org. For Season 9, we are thinking about action. We know the world can't change unless we change the way we think, but we also know that simply changing the way we think isn't enough, so for every episode, we will be including action steps that we encourage you to take after listening. Action Steps - Ep 1: Have explicit conversations about who is in class with your young people, who are they hanging out with, who is in their friend group. Consider how we, as parents, caregivers, educators, school leaders, can facilitate cross-racial friendships for our kids. Connect with the Integrated Schools community, so you don't feel alone in your fight for justice in your community. Send the teachers in your life a note of thanks and offer of support.

How do children learn about race or racism? Is it ever too early to start talking to them about it? What kinds of conversations should we be having with young children about these issues? In this special episode of Early Risers, host Dianne Haulcy revisits highlights from some of her past interviews with educators, psychologists, children's book authors, brain researchers, therapists, and others. Together these experts offer insights, practical tools, and guidance for raising children with an understanding of cultural differences, racism and implicit bias. The voices include: Dr. Rosemarie Allen - associate professor, School of Education at Metropolitan State University of Denver Louise Derman-Sparks - anti-bias education expert and author, “What if All the Kids Are White?” Dr. Damien Fair - cognitive neuroscientist and co-director, Masonic Institute for the Developing Brain, University of Minnesota Peggy Flanagan - 50th Lieutenant Governor, state of Minnesota Christina Gonzalez - director of Student Support Services for Richfield Public Schools, Richfield, Minnesota Beth Hall - executive director, PACT, An Adoption Alliance Brook LaFloe - early childhood educator and entrepreneur Resmaa Menakem - therapist, coach and author, “My Grandmother's Hands: Racialized Trauma and the Pathway to Mending Our Hearts and Bodies” Bao Phi - Writer and award-winning children's book author, “A Different Pond” Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum - psychologist and author, “Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria? and Other Conversations About Race.” Episode resources: Anti-bias educator and author Louise Derman-Sparks describes the creative use of persona dolls as a tool for promoting inclusion and reducing bias. Here's an example of how persona dolls are being used in one early childhood classroom. University of Minnesota cognitive neuroscientist Damien Fair discusses the Harvard Implicit Association Test, which includes a variety of free online assessments where you can gain insight about your own implicit biases. Early childhood educator and entrepreneur Brook LaFloe describes an Indigenous cultural resource called the medicine wheel that helped her to conceptualize the interconnectedness of the different peoples of the world as a child. There is a lack of racial and cultural diversity in children's book characters as well as authors. EmbraceRace crowdsourced a list of recommended children's books, featuring “kids of color being themselves.”

Babies are like little scientists. They come into the world with a natural ability to notice patterns and form connections. By the time a child is two years old, research shows that they are already noticing racial differences. Dr. Charisse Pickron is an assistant professor and director of the Child Brain and Perception Lab at the University of Minnesota's Institute of Child Development. She investigates how babies and toddlers start to learn about race, including why humans may have evolved to prefer the faces of people who look like them. Her research illuminates how parents and caregivers can widen our circles of connection and disrupt what she calls a “long trajectory of bias.” Guest: Dr. Charisse Pickron is an assistant professor and director of the Child Brain and Perception Lab at the University of Minnesota's Institute of Child Development.

No black parent looks forward to having that conversation – the one where you explain to your sweet child what it means to be racialised as 'black'.But how do we prepare our children for the realities of racism, while still encouraging a strong, positive sense of identity? How do we go about raising black kids in mostly white environments? And can we come back to the question of multiethnic households once again?Renowned psychologist and best-selling author Dr Beverly Daniel Tatum explains how we raise black children who are confident, savvy and ready for the world, without burdening them with the trauma of racism.Find out more about the revised 20 year anniversary edition of Dr Beverly's book, Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?: And Other Conversations About Race, here.Find out more about Laura Henry-Allain's children's book, My Skin, Your Skin: Let's Talk About Race, Racism and Empowerment, here.Follow Black Ballad on Twitter, Instagram and TikTok.

Young children are like sponges, absorbing information about the world around them. Children have already started to internalize racialized messages about their value and self-worth by the time they are three to four years old. Psychologist Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum, an expert in racial identity development and the author of “Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria? and Other Conversations About Race” calls this “the smog we're all breathing.”   In our Season 2 premiere of Early Risers, host Dianne Haulcy talks with Tatum about concrete steps parents and caregivers can take to proactively affirm children, including how to respond when children ask us questions about race and physical differences. Episode Resources: Tatum's best-selling book, “Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria? and Other Conversations About Race” was first published in 1997. She released an updated 20th anniversary version in 2017. Tatum's 2017 TedX Stanford talk, “Is My Skin Brown Because I Drank Chocolate Milk?” features stories and practical advice about talking to very young children about race, including addressing the painful history of chattel slavery.  Faith Ringgold's “Aunt Harriet's Underground Railroad in the Sky” is one of Dr. Tatum's favorite books to use with young children to open conversation about the horrors of chattel slavery and the courage of people who resisted. She also suggests Jeanette Winter's “Follow the Drinking Gourd.” Tatum recommends Social Justice Books for discovering multicultural and social justice books for children.

Helping children develop their identity is integral to making them self-sufficient and independent, as well as to master their Executive Function skills. In addition to children's cognitive, linguistic, and emotional development, parents and educators alike must understand the social science behind the development of racial, ethnic, and cultural identities, which play a major role in shaping a child's lens on life and how they relate to other racial and ethnic groups different than their own.On this episode, Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum—President Emerita at Spelman College, a clinical psychologist, and the author of several books including the best-selling book Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria? And Other Conversations About Race, discusses racial identity development among children growing up in the U.S..

This podcast was originally featured as a webinar with Dr. Nancy Lynne Westfield, Dr. Melanie Harris (Texas Christian University), and Dr. Jennifer Harvey (Drake University). White America must challenge its high capacity to tolerate racism, to overlook racist acts, and to look past racist behaviors. Personal agency is required to become anti-racist. Disrupting systemic racism requires a shift in public policies as well as a rethinking of institutional norms, traditions, and procedures. These shifts require the work of dedicated people. Equally, personal agency is required to genuinely welcome persons targeted by racism. To shift personal and familial attitudes, beliefs and behaviors persons must speak out for justice. This requires education and action. Our questions for this webinar:• If racism is so pervasive as to be like “smog in the air” (Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum) – how do we identify acts of racism?• What does it mean to be complicit with racism?• What kind of listening is needed to become anti-racist?• Is there such-a-thing as “microaggression?”

April 15th is normally Tax Day in America, and while COVID has prompted the IRS to extend the deadline this year, we wanted to take a look at inequities in the tax code. Dorothy Brown, Law Professor at Emory College and author of the new book "The Whiteness of Wealth" studies exactly this issue, and joined Alyssa Milano to share her insights. Praise For The Whiteness Of Wealth: How The Tax System Impoverishes Black Americans--And How We Can Fix It “This enlightening book is a vital companion to The New Jim Crow, The Color of Wealth, and Evicted, for how it reimagines everything you thought you knew about U.S. social policy.”—Tressie McMillan Cottom, MacArthur Fellow and author of Thick: And Other Essays “This book is a tour de force. With clarity and conviction, Dorothy Brown reveals how U.S. tax policy sustains and deepens the wealth gap between black and white Americans. As I read The Whiteness of Wealth, I found myself shaking my head as I eagerly turned the pages and shouting ‘damn’ with each revelation. If we are finally to address the long history of racism in this country, we must grapple with the arguments of Brown’s powerful book. This is a MUST read for these troubling times.”—Eddie S. Glaude Jr., New York Times bestselling author of Begin Again and Democracy in Black “I couldn’t put it down! Dorothy Brown skillfully weaves her analysis of the racial bias in tax law with compelling personal stories of both Black and White taxpayers as well as policy recommendations for how to bring equity to our tax system.”—Beverly Daniel Tatum, PhD, New York Times bestselling author of Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria? “At once passionate and analytical, The Whiteness of Wealth is a bracing contribution to the history of policy racism that takes us to the heart of taxation’s effects on patterns of economic distribution.”—Ira Katznelson, author of When Affirmative Action Was White --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alyssa-milano-sorry-not-sorry/message

As parents, we aim to raise our children to be good people. Inclusive, respectful people that help move humanity forward. To do this, we have to have open, honest and sometimes difficult conversations about issues that our country and society faces. Simply stating “Do onto others as you would have them do onto you” is not enough. In this episode of Yoga| Birth| Babies, I speak with clinical psychologist, author of the book Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria and former president of Spelman College, Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum. In this important conversation Dr. Tatum helps define anti-racism, prejudice, and white privilege. She offers insight into ways people may be complacent, unknowingly moving towards racism, and how “well meaning” parents contribute to systemic racism.  Children are not inherently born racist and Dr. Tatum gives solid starting points to talk to kids of all ages about racism.  Support Our Sponsors: About 1 in 8 mothers have PPD and it can affect not only the mother but also the whole family.

This is the first series of the ReWeav podcast. We will be focusing on the diverse experiences of people in the Black community. It is essential to remember that there is diversity within every ethnic and cultural group. As such, the reality of what is like to be Black and Christian in the USA is complex. The first 4 episodes are from early summer 2020. Shortly after the death of George Floyd. My guests were honest with their pain and with their hope. My prayer is that their stories would bless you by helping expand your understanding of people and help you love others more. In this episode Mitchele Anderson talks to Mazvita Chikava. Maz is a psychology student, Black Student Union Publisher at her university, mental health advocate, and all around creative. They discuss Maz's identity & background, the black lives matter movement, and give insightful advice on how to have the hard conversations. (Recorded June 6, 2020) It's time to be brave.

BLACK LIVES MATTER. PERIOD. This is an unparalleled time in modern history where the masses are standing up against the systemic racism and white supremacy upon which our country has been built. The question we must all ask ourselves is whether we are part of the solution or part of the problem. We must be consistently listening, learning, educating ourselves, and acting upon what we have learned. In her book Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?, Beverly Daniel Tatum says, "[A] genuine commitment to interrupting racism is a long-term commitment...We all need community to give us energy, to strengthen our voices, and to offer constructive criticism when we stray off course." So we call upon all of our listeners to be that energy.  The best way to work towards being that energy is to start by educating ourselves. Even the most learned among us must be constantly evolving, which is part of the "lifelong commitment" that Beverly Daniel Tatum mentions above. In light of this, we wanted to share some of our favorite resources we have come across: 1) Black Lives Matter Resources are available HERE;  2) The Black Lives Matter At Schools 2020 Teaching Curriculum Resource guide for teaching K-12 is available HERE; and 3) The Social Justice Film Festival has put together a list of films, books, and resources that you can access HERE. We also wish to share a few book recommendations of our own. Below this message are six of our favorites for learning about being anti-racist and/or a better understanding about the conditions against which the Black Lives Matters Movement is currently fighting. Please try to seek out a black-owned bookstore to purchase them. We recommend L.E.M.S., located right here in Seattle, or take a look at this list put together by the African American Literature Book Club. In the words of Ibram X. Kendi, from his book How to Be an Antiracist, "One either allows racial inequities to persevere, as a racist, or confronts racial inequities, as an antiracist. There is no in-between safe space of “not racist.” The claim of “not racist” neutrality is a mask for racism." Freedom is a Constant Struggle by Angela Y. Davis "In these newly collected essays, interviews, and speeches, world-renowned activist & scholar Angela Y. Davis illuminates the connections between struggles against state violence and oppression throughout history and around the world. Reflecting on the importance of black feminism, intersectionality, and prison abolitionism for today's struggles, Davis discusses the legacies of previous liberation struggles, from the Black Freedom Movement to the South African anti-Apartheid movement. She highlights connections and analyzes today's struggles against state terror, from Ferguson to Palestine." How To Be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi "In his memoir, Kendi weaves together an electrifying combination of ethics, history, law, and science--including the story of his own awakening to antiracism--bringing it all together in a cogent, accessible form. He begins by helping us rethink our most deeply held, if implicit, beliefs and our most intimate personal relationships (including beliefs about race and IQ and interracial social relations) and reexamines the policies and larger social arrangements we support.  How to Be an Antiracist promises to become an essential book for anyone who wants to go beyond an awareness of racism to the next step of contributing to the formation of a truly just and equitable society." So You Want to Talk About Race by Ijeoma Oluo "In So You Want to Talk About Race, Ijeoma Oluo guides readers of all races through subjects ranging from intersectionality and affirmative action to “model minorities” in an attempt to make the seemingly impossible possible: honest conversations about race and racism, and how they infect almost every aspect of American life." From #BlackLivesMatter to Black Liberation by Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor "In this stirring and insightful analysis, activist and scholar Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor surveys the historical and contemporary ravages of racism and persistence of structural inequality such as mass incarceration and Black unemployment. In this context, she argues that this new struggle against police violence holds the potential to reignite a broader push for Black liberation." White By Law 10th Anniversary Edition by Ian Haney López "In the first edition of White by Law, Haney López traced the reasoning employed by the courts in their efforts to justify the whiteness of some and the non-whiteness of others, and revealed the criteria that were used, often arbitrarily, to determine whiteness, and thus citizenship: skin color, facial features, national origin, language, culture, ancestry, scientific opinion, and, most importantly, popular opinion. Ten years later, Haney López revisits the legal construction of race, and argues that current race law has spawned a troubling racial ideology that perpetuates inequality under a new guise: colorblind white dominance. In a new, original essay written specifically for the 10th anniversary edition, he explores this racial paradigm and explains how it contributes to a system of white racial privilege socially and legally defended by restrictive definitions of what counts as race and as racism, and what doesn't, in the eyes of the law. " Pedagogy of the Oppressed: 50th Anniversary Edition by Paulo Freire "First published in Portuguese in 1968, Pedagogy of the Oppressed was translated and published in English in 1970. The methodology of the late Paulo Freire has helped to empower countless impoverished and illiterate people throughout the world. Freire's work has taken on especial urgency in the United States and Western Europe, where the creation of a permanent underclass among the underprivileged and minorities in cities and urban centers is increasingly accepted as the norm."

Episode 1.5: Show Notes.There’s a reason that racial progress in America has been so slow. Activists need to deal with two challenges — a broken system and an often unconsciously racist culture. And as Suzanne Plihcik, co-founder of the Rational Equity Institute explains, “culture eats structure for breakfast.” Today we speak with Suzanne about her work for the institute and what we can do to not only implement structural changes but to shift our culture. Early in our discussion, Suzanne chats about her background and how she realized that America’s system was preventing many people of color from empowering themselves. To illustrate her point, she shares an example of how black students were denied opportunities within the North Carolina school system. An uncomfortable idea, we dive into how white people are complicit and therefore partly responsible for systematic racism. Suzanne provides details on how our systems have been designed, going back to the early 1600s, to benefit white people and how many people do not acknowledge this. Later, we touch on the differences between mobilizing and organizing, why organizing is key to enacting change, and how our belief systems impact our perceptions. Suzanne then brings decades of experience to bear on what white people can do to fight for racial equity before unpacking the dangers behind the normalization of white culture. Near the end of the episode, we explore the deep roots of Suzanne’s hope, and she gives her take on the effect that Black Lives Matter has had on society. Tune in to hear more of Suzanne’s nuanced insights on how you can help “organize the truth.”Key Points From This Episode: • Suzanne shares how she began her fight for racial equity.• Realizing that systems are preventing people of color from empowering themselves.• How culture “eats structure for lunch” and why culture shifts are needed to enact change. • A shocking example of how racial injustice easily occurs in school systems.• The ‘Moving Walkway of Racism’ and white responsibility within a racist system.• Defining systematic racism; a system set up to disproportionately disadvantage certain groups.• The beginnings of ‘oppression as a strategy’ in the United States.• Hear what Suzanne has learned from 30 years of working for racial equity.• The sense that people in America don’t respect the problem of racial disparity. • Why organizing is the key to shifting America’s culture. • Using our conscious brain to justify unconscious biases.• Why Suzanne focuses on training people who are receptive to her message.• The top things that white people can do to help enact change.• Understanding white culture and why only calling things out does not get anything done.• Hear about the work that the Racial Equity Institute does to “organize the truth.”• Why the Racial Equity Institute is run as a for-profit organization.• Suzanne discusses the root of her hope and reflects on the progress she’s witnessed.
