Let’s radically listen to multiracial children on April 21
In an effort to celebrate and promote the journey of black cultural awareness, three of the most respected nonprofit organizations in Delray Beach are collaborating to present Authors Speak Series 2022, according to Charlene Farrington, Executive Director of Spady Cultural Heritage Museum; Marjorie Waldo, President & CEO of Arts Garage; and Renee Jadusingh, Executive Director of the Community Redevelopment Agency of Delray Beach.
The timely topic of this “free to see” series is The Impact of Race on American Society, offering an “interesting enlightening conversations with writers who have cultivated a perspective on black cultural awareness through their research and personal experiences.”
At 7 p.m., Thursday, April 21, the series will welcome Dr. Ralina L. Joseph, PhD & Dr. Allison Briscoe-Smith, PhD to talk about their book, Generation Mixed Goes to School: Radically Listening to Multiracial Kids
This book weaves together stories of mixed-race children and youth, teachers, and caregivers and investigates how implicit bias affects multiracial kids in unforeseen ways. In addition, it breaks out of the Black/White binary to include the perspective of mixed-race children from Asian American, Latinx, and Native American backgrounds and provides stories, academic research, and tangible exercises that together create the opportunity for meaningful anti-racist change.
