Join the Eliot School Salon Series for a compelling and nuanced conversation about “Talking to Kids About Race, Justice, and Their Power Using Art” with Tanya Nixon-Silberg, Founder of Little Uprisings and co-founder of Wee the People, as well as Zahirah Nur Truth, ZNT ARTS Teaching Artist and Arts Education Consultant.

The conversation will be moderated by Alison Croney Moses, Program Director, The Eliot School of Fine & Applied Arts.

Finally, respondent Innosanto Nagara, activist, graphic designer, author and founder of Design Action Collective, will then set the scene for an open audience Q&A.

In this moment, locally and across the globe, people have awakened to racial injustice and the damage it’s doing to our society, especially following the violence in our nation’s capital.

Parents, teachers, and others invested in shaping our children’s futures—all are looking for resources, answers, and direction for how we support our kids as they navigate this world.

What do kids need?

What do adults need in this moment?

And for the people who are actively doing this work to dismantle systems of oppression, where can they find joy in their work?

How do they/we cultivate a culture of celebration and rejuvenation in the process?
