Anti-Bias Workshop for Parents
Description
Understanding & Embracing Differences: A Workshop for Parents and Caregivers on Anti-Bias Principles & Practices
Saturday November 17 from 10am-1pm
East Shore Unitarian Church
12700 SE 32nd St., Bellevue, WA.
Research shows children as young as 6 months old are able to categorize people by
race. By 4 and 5 years old children start to discriminate against peers. But research
also shows children’s biased attitudes are not directly correlated to those of their
parents and caregivers. That's because the youngest members of our communities see
and hear everything, and prejudice is woven into the very fabric of society. Join us to
dialogue on the ways we can healthily talk about differences and undoing –isms
(racism, classism, sexism, ableism, etc.) with our children.
