What if you could address complex topics like racism, climate change, and faith within the confines of a children's book? What if these books could spark important conversations, challenge societal conditioning, and reevaluate Western church teachings? Today's episode is with Jelani Memory, author of "A Kid's Book About Racism" and founder of Kids Co. We discuss how his imaginative yet knowledgeable approach helps in creating books that tackle tough subjects in a manner digestible for kids. We cast a critical eye on Western American Christianity, its motivations, and the commodification of the church. We also reflect on the church's failure to adequately address racism, and Jelani shares his own experiences grappling with this disconnect.
