This week, we present an encore of a previously released podcast focused on the work of Traci Baxley, the creator of Social Justice Parenting. Social Justice Parenting is a philosophy rooted in radical love and activism.  Traci’s work focuses on supporting families with intentional parenting today for a more humane world tomorrow. In this encore episode, we: 

• Hear Traci’s own story of how she came into this work stemming from her own feelings of belonging for herself and others, especially the need to rally around children who are marginalized
• Understand how parents can and need to move from fear-based parenting to embracing radical love
• Learn about the framework for radical love that Traci developed with the acronym R.O.C.K.S. 
• Hear Traci’s own experience raising bi-racial children
• Understand Traci’s views about how communities need to come together to pool resources, be more engaged, advocate in our schools and collectively close the academic gap 
• Listen to Traci’s advice for how to keep moving forward with your mission even when you feel defeated

In this episode we reference:
