We Black | When Do You Teach Your Child About Race?

Welcome back to your new favorite podcast, Controversy and Chaos! Our take might be a little controversial, and that's OK! How do you teach your children about being Black without taking away the innocence of simply being a kid?In Episode 97, we get into a conversation many Black parents eventually have to navigate: when and how do we introduce our children to race? We talk about teaching our kids to love and celebrate their Blackness, preparing them for how the world may perceive them, and finding the balance between awareness and fear.Before we get into this week’s chaos, we catch up on life, test whether we actually “speak girl,” discuss the internet debates we are officially tired of, and take a very necessary trip down Tyler Perry movie memory lane. 😂It’s funny, thoughtful, and one of those conversations where there isn’t necessarily one “right” way to do it.⏱️ Episode Timestamps0:00 – Intro 0:15 – Welcome to Episode 97 0:45 – The TikTok Algorithm Drops Me Off Anywhere 😭 2:08 – What’s the Tea? | Let’s Catch Up 12:25 – Do You Speak Girl? 14:36 – Off the Record | One Internet Debate You’re Tired Of 17:15 – Tyler Perry Movie Quotes We Love 23:24 – This Week’s Chaos | How Are You Teaching Your Child About Race?Want to add to the conversation!?
