E17: BONUS EPISODE - Antiracist Schooling: The Angela Day School with Dianna Myles

In this special bonus episode, SooJin speaks to Dianna Myles, the founder of the The Angela Day School, to raise awareness of this new antiracist school that is scheduled to open in Fall 2022. Listen to find out more about this school, how you can get involved and enroll your children, and what the upcoming November info sessions will be about. Our conversation also delves into what antiracist parenting looks like when parenting young children. And we summon our ancestors, especially the words of the late great Toni Morrison and her speech from 1975 that offers a piercing critique of racism and potent instructions for how people of color should respond to racism. Hint: If we only knew our worth... Please read the speech linked below. It should be required reading in every classroom.
