Social justice involves action. In our society which has historically privileged whiteness, many racist and other prejudicial ideas are widely accepted as the standard and are pervasively practiced as the norm. Because of this, allies must engage in anti-racism and take action against racist behaviors. One form of action involves parenting practices. Dr. Traci Baxley, author of Social Justice Parenting: How to Raise Compassionate, Anti-Racist, Justice-Minded Kids, is an expert in child development, elementary education, curriculum and instruction, diversity and inclusion, anti-bias curriculum, and social justice education. On this episode of POTC, Debbie and Traci come together to discuss the importance of Social Justice Parenting Practices. Join us in this episode to learn expert-approved strategies for accepting your child for who they are, practical advice for moving from being a “good person” to being an advocate for historically excluded communities, the main qualities of a pro-justice home, and so much more! . . #booklovers #trauma #selfcompassion #mentalhealthmatters #brave #courage #socialanxiety #podcastersofinstagram #podcasts #podcastlife #mentalhealth #mindfulness #values #acceptanceandcommitmenttherapy #w #coping #anxiety #psychology #psychologistsofinstagram #psychologyofhappiness #happylife #happiness #mindfulmoments #stress #pressure #socialjusticeparenting #socialjustice #justice
