The persistent tragic events involving violence and bias against young people of color has prompted an urgent response from child development, educational equity, and media leaders who have combined forces to create new tools for community change. This session features action blueprints and a creative force: the release of Discussing Race with Young Children: A Step-by-Step Activity Guide; the critically acclaimed book Belonging: The Science of Creating Connections and Bridging Divides; and a unique take from the hip hop legend and social activist, Darryl (DMC) McDaniels.
