The Meaning of Kamala Harris - for Our Kids and Ourselves

What does the upcoming presidential election and its historic identity choice mean for kids and their adults? Separate from the HUGE questions of democracy and policy differences at play (not what we talk about in this conversation), how and to what extent do Kamala Harris’ racial and gender identities, and the representation of those identities, matter? 

We’re thrilled to be joined by returning guests Drs. Allison Briscoe-Smith & Ralina Joseph and to read from your stories, questions and comments. 

This conversation happened on October 10th, 2024. We will post the transcript in the coming days.
