Janet Stovall shares how she holds institutions accountable for fixing their race issues and why she equipped her children with an understanding of race – in kindergarten.

It’s no secret that America has race issues, and that this has been the case since its inception. After the recent deaths of Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, Sandra Bland, Eric Garner, and many others who have lost their lives at the hands of the police or in jail, we are seeing firsthand how far we still have to go to make the country truly equal for everyone. While this isn’t something that can be fixed overnight, there are many things you can do to start making some real progress toward improving racial equity. In this show you will learn:

Why Race Awareness Starts Early
How to have open and honest conversations
Why Equip Children With Race Awareness
Diversity in Academia - Why Equity Matters Here Too
