MPR News

How do you help young children understand the harm of racism and the importance of racial equity? How do we help them make sense of what they see and hear about race every day?

Early Risers podcast host Dianne Haulcy, president and CEO at The Family Partnership, presents a one-hour special broadcast presentation about raising children for a future of racial equity.

Voices include Rich Lee, a professor of psychology and director of the Asian American Studies Program at the University of Minnesota, and parents, including a Somali American mother in St. Cloud, Minn. and a Black couple raising a family in Rochester, Minn.

Early Risers is a co-production of Minnesota Public Radio and Little Moments Count.
