About this Content

The reality of this curriculum began as a dream among parents, educators and anti-racist activists over time. We heard each other yearning to equip young white people with stories that would fortify them for long-haul racial justice struggle. We wanted stories we could tell at campfires, on holidays, in homeschools, devotional spaces, songs we could sing to our babes before bed, songs with seeds of liberation in them, songs that could awaken a legacy all too often unacknowledged among our kin.
