talking about race

Talking about race can be tricky for many of us. So how can we do it in an inclusive, mindful and positive way? Thankfully there is a new book that includes a short history of race and racism in Britain, from the Romans through to the present day, including the history of slavery and the abolition movement. 

Ruth Hill and Loretta Andrews chat about their inspiration for the book and their own lived experiences.

From Amy:

This is a tender and important topic for me. As a white woman, I'm afraid of getting it wrong. At the same time I'm so proud of this episode.

More importantly, I thank Stephanie Walton for engaging in this exchange. There's something so damaging when white culture denies the truths of Black people, and has for generations. 

And yet, here we are.

I strongly suspect—and Stephanie affirms—I've been missing some good stuff at the intersections of our two cultures by not digging deeper. So I'm educating myself—and some of the things we white people think we need to worry about? Stephanie says let it go. Some of the things I thought Black people knew? Stephanie didn't. I always learn from our talks.

Stephanie is a gracious, astute, Black woman who tells it like it is, and I'm grateful to her, both for her friendship and for meeting me here to explore.

Learning about micro aggressions for teens, parents and some notes from my 9 year old son Joshua. 

Dr. Nneka Sederstrom was Director of the Center for Ethics and Director of the Spiritual Care Department at Medstar Washington Hospital Center in Washington DC before coming to Children's Minnesota as Director of the Clinical Ethics Department. She earned her PhD in Medical Sociology, MPH in Global Health Management, and MA in Philosophy. She is widely published in Clinical Ethics and speaks regularly at national and international meetings.

Dr. Sederstrom loves to read (especially long epic fantasy series), dance, knit, and engage in all things crafty. She is the first African American woman bakery owner to use locally sourced ingredients in the state of Minnesota. She is the mother of Grayson, who happens to be a baby model, and Aadya, who may model one day. She is the wife to Charlie, the love of her life. Her favorite music is anything before 2005. Her favorite quote is “Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” — Maya Angelou

Charlie Sederstrom is a registered nurse and the current clinical and technical trainer at Medica where, among other duties, he is helping to lead a health equity work group that is beginning to take a detailed look at how access to quality health care, and health literacy, can be improved across the region.

He, like many White people, is beginning to better understand the role he needs to play in recognizing, and then taking action against, racism in our community.

Babies begin to notice race at six months old. Children are paying attention. And as we’ve learned this season, what they hear the adults in their lives say and do⁠—or not say and do⁠—deeply influences the people they are⁠—and who they’ll become.

Rapper and Preemptive Love's artist-in-residence Propaganda (Jason Petty), and his wife, university professor Dr. Alma Zaragoza-Petty, both of the Red Couch Podcast, join us for a candid conversation about parenting and talking to kids about race.

In this episode, Propaganda and Alma share their experiences growing up as people of color, share ways they've talked about race and peacemaking with their children, and speak into what they want white parents to know about humility and allyship.
