Talking about Race with Young People

$10.00

Talking about race with the young people you serve can be challenging. This workshop is for leaders, parents, and church members who want to have conversations about racism and prejudice, and help young people faithfully explore issues that are important to God and relevant for one of our most racially and ethnically diverse generations yet. But at times it can feel easier to shy away from complex topics and avoid highly charged conversations. In this workshop we will cover vocabulary to know, history to be mindful of and will end with practical next steps so that you can confidently engage teenagers in faithful and caring discussions about race
