Mom Jeans and Minivans are so happy to be back from summer break, but unfortunately, they have to kick it off with a heavy topic. With the recent death of George Floyd and the protests around racial inequality, Morgen and Trisha thought this was too important not to discuss.
It wasn’t easy, but both of them needed to get uncomfortable and think about this issue on a deeper and more personal level. Knowing that they want Charlie and Remi to grow up understanding what racism and white privilege means in our country meant they needed to educate themselves first.
Racism starts young in children, as early as 2-3 years old, so Morgen and Trisha delve into ways they can start teaching the girls about diversity, race, culture, kindness, and empathy.
Check out their links below, and if you’re struggling with this topic, hopefully, this episode offers some insight into how your fellow mamas are tackling it in their homes.
