014: Decolonizing Parenting and Raising Anti-Racist Children with Yolanda Williams

In this week’s episode, I speak with Yolanda Wiliams, the woman behind Parenting Decolonized.   As a single mom, racial justice educator, and Positive Discipline Coach, Yolanda empowers parents with tools to decolonize their mindsets and divest from white supremacy in order to raise the next generation of emotionally-well, liberated, free-thinkers and in the process, form deeper more intentional relationships with their children.    Listen in as we talk about:   What it means to decolonize parenting How colonization shows up on a micro level in terms of parenting Yolanda’s tips for anti-racist parenting Why white supremacy hurts everybody How white parents can have anti-racist conversations with their kids   She is unapologetically dedicated to serving the black parenting community, to celebrating the culture and beauty as often as she can, and to helping actors become accomplices in the fight for intersectional racial justice.   She started this work after having her first child at 37 years old and learning as much as she could about children and their brain development in 2017.    Resources from Yolanda https://www.whiteaccomplices.org White Supremacy Culture Characteristics Book: Raising Anti-Racist Kids: An Age by Age Guide for Parents of White Children   Resources from Sarah PEPS Anti-Racist Resources for Parents The White Parent's Guide to Raising Anti-Racist Kids To understand more about being Black in North America Book: You'll Never Believe What Happened to Lacey   Connect with Yolanda   On Instagram On Facebook On Twitter YouTube www.parentingdecolonized.com    Connect with Sarah Rosensweet   On Instagram On Facebook https://www.sarahrosensweet.com
