Hidden in Plain Sight: The Legacy of Slavery

  • As young people coming of age in the 21st century, we've all heard about 'the talk' that our parents have with us. But for Black kids, there's a different kind of talk: one where we're taught to be aware of our surroundings at all times and how to protect ourselves from potential danger.
  • This is an incredibly important conversation, but it can be difficult to navigate as both a parent and a child. In this book, we offer a variety of topics to have 'the talk' with parents of Black children and how these conversations shape the lives of young people today.
  • Having 'the talk' with our loved ones can be difficult; how can we make sure it's done right? As parents, we often have to go above and beyond when it comes to having crucial conversations with our children. We must take into consideration the unique challenges that come with being a person of color in today's society.
  • Having an open dialogue is imperative to making sure that our kids are prepared for what is to come. In order to ensure that these conversations are effective, there needs to be understanding on both sides. Parents need to listen and understand their child's perspective as well as provide guidance while also giving them space to express themselves freely. This way, both parties can feel heard and respected during the conversation, which will ultimately lead to more productive outcomes.
