Antiracist Parenting Podcast
E10: Antiracist Parenting in the Context of Multiracial Families with Laura and Daren Hill
In this episode, SooJin and Hannah engage in a rich discussion with soulmates, Laura and Daren Hill. The conversation flows like a slow, meandering river as we challenge ourselves to slow down and be more like water: adaptable, strong, gentle, powerful, vulnerable, interconnected, and expansive. We break down “knowledge” by getting to know our ledges (boundaries) and defining ourselves on our own terms based in our own culture(s). Laura and Daren share how they lead by example, planting seeds to encourage critical thinking and cultivating their kids’ imaginations through education and art. It is truly a gift to witness the loving, healthy, and respectful relationship Laura and Daren have with each other and the world around them.
NOTE: We sometimes use the acronym BIPOC, which means Black, Indigenous and/or People of Color.
There is some profanity at the 14:09 and 38:35 minute marks.
