Celeste Headlee–I Wanna Talk About Racism

Celeste Headlee is a longtime public radio star and the author of Speaking of Race: Why Everybody Needs to Talk About Racism. We talk deeply about her book and why parents need to talk to their kids about race and racism and how they should do it. Basically: racism is like anything else, if you don’t tell your kids about it someone outside your home will and they may not get the right message from them.
