Biz is joined in the virtual studio by James Arthur M., host of Maximum Fun's Minority Korner podcast. We talk about ways in which parents can educate our kids to be anti-racists. We are on the front lines of human rights activism by teaching our children about equity and equality.

Follow James on his website at mjamesarthur.com  and on Twitter @JamesArthur_M. Find out more about his Saturday Zoom dance classes here. Get involved at JoinCampaignZero.org.
