In a world where people are more likely to proclaim <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Color_blindness_(race)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">colorblindness<\/a> than talk openly about race, how can we truly value, support, and celebrate our kids&#8217; identity? How can we assess our own sense of racial readiness, and develop a deeper understanding of the issues facing multiracial children today?<\/p>\n<p><em>Raising Multiracial Children<\/em> gives parents the tools for exploring race with their children, offering practical guidance on how to initiate conversations; consciously foster multicultural identity development; discuss issues like <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Microaggression\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">microaggressions<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Intersectionality\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">intersectionality<\/a>, and privilege; and intentionally cultivate a sense of belonging. It provides an overview of key issues and current topics relevant to raising multiracial children and offers strategies that can be implemented in the classroom and at home, with developmentally appropriate milestones from infancy through adulthood. The book ends with resources and references for further learning and exploration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The essential guide to parenting multiracial and multiethnic children of all ages\u2014and learning to nourish, support, and celebrate their multiracial identity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11,414,125,8,17,23],"tags":[3607,30101],"class_list":["post-58661","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-books","category-family","category-identitydevelopment","category-media-archive","category-monographs","category-teaching","tag-farzana-nayani","tag-penguin-random-house-canada"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58661","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=58661"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58661\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":59678,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58661\/revisions\/59678"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=58661"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=58661"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=58661"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
