Talking about race can be sensitive and uncomfortable; and sometimes we try to protect our children from racism they are already experiencing. But honestly, there is no way around this topic if we want to move forward in any kind of meaningful way. What&#8217;s happening in the world is not just a problem for the Black community, it&#8217;s all of our problem and we ALL have to care about it in order to change it!
