In this episode, trauma-informed specialist, writer, curricular developer, and instructional coach April Brown shows how to have more important discussions with young children about race and systems of white supremacy.

The idea of "staying neutral" or "apolitical" as educators is common. In this episode, I push back against the notion of value neutrality in schools, explaining why I've come to this conclusion and how teachers and school leaders who are feeling the same way might move forward.
