I was so blown away by the question because my experience of people who mixed race tend to identify as racialized and experience racism. We must remember that it's not just how we want to identify. It's how we're identified.”   Resources mentioned in this episode: https://youthtoday.org/category/grants/ Things Kids are Anxious About White Privilege Dr. Camille Hernandez Ramdwar White Parents Talk Race Raise Antiracist Kids How White Parents Talk About Race Systemic Racism Impact of Colorism   Connect with us: - Subscribe to the Project Good Work Blog to read the article version of the interview. - If you have a passion for an unserved community, a social justice problem or want to change minds contact Project Good Work at www.ProjectGood.Work to start your project of change today.
