Teaching kids about racism

In episode 5 of “Facing Race,” we examine how to teach kids to be antiracist and how to help kids of color navigate racism. Several studies show babies can notice racial differences, and by the time a child starts kindergarten, they have the same beliefs as adults around them. Race educators say parents must start talking about race early. Robin DiAngelo, author of “White Fragility,” explains why it’s crucial for white families to discuss race with their children from a young age and shares tips for parents starting those conversations.
