Register HERE.

Join us for a conversation about how movies and television shape children's ideas about race and ethnicity, what healthy racial content on big and small screens looks/sounds like nowadays, what we can do to encourage the development of more high-quality racial representations in TV and movies, and how we can help the children we love critically engage critically with media. As always, we will welcome your insights and questions. Read more about our special guests below.

As with all Talking Race & Kids webinars, registration is free. If you register, you’ll receive a link to the recording, the transcript, and relevant resources in the days following the live event.
