38 - The Talk: Navigating Parenthood of Minority Children with Dez Henderson

“Empowering boys against social biases” In this heartfelt episode, Lizette has a very special guest on, her childhood bestie Dezanik or “Dez” as some call her. They delve into the delicate balance of raising black and brown boys, where our aim is to provide them with a nuanced understanding of the world without instilling unnecessary fear. We navigate the fine line between unveiling the potential challenges they may face due to the color of their skin while ensuring they approach life with resilience, confidence, and awareness. Join us as we share personal insights, practical strategies, and a commitment to fostering a supportive environment that empowers these young minds to navigate the world with both strength and grace. Amigos, we implore you to engage in thoughtful conversations with your friends, colleagues, and family, fostering an environment where we collectively shield ourselves from succumbing to the pitfalls of social biases. By transcending divisive perspectives, we aspire to perceive every child as a shared responsibility, urging us to extend our care and nurture to each one, irrespective of societal preconceptions. Through open dialogue and communal understanding, we can build a world that values the potential in every young individual, fostering a society where biases hold no sway, and compassion becomes the guiding force in shaping a brighter, more equitable future. “Remember, When you know better, you do better” GUEST HOST Dezanik Henderson-ClimensIG: Dezi.hc -- DOWNLOAD and SUBSCRIBE to Hijas Madres Y Amigas & FOLLOW US ON: INSTAGRAM @hijasmadresyamigashttps://rb.gy/v3kfq @seelenaaa_https://rb.gy/suy5y @lizetteaguilera_https://rb.gy/81p2g SPOTIFY Lizette - https://tinyurl.com/328abak3Selena - https://rb.gy/ohw0o TIK-TOK @hijasmadresyamigashttps://tinyurl.com/2aw88byh -- SUBSCRIBE to our newsletter at www.justjmarc.com/hijasmadresyamigas Please email us here with any suggestions, comments, and questions for future episodes.
