MLK Jr Day Takes on A New Importance with Our Adopted Daughter

<p>PBS and Kids Academy on Youtube has some great content, and both of the kids really engaged with them. However, a lot of it goes over their heads which is to be expected. It&rsquo;s really all about the tone setting. Now having a daughter of color, what we considered a worthwhile and important conversation has now become urgent. We partially picked our neighborhood, the school they go to, the places we lean in due to diversity, but now the urgency of conversations and change have risen tenfold.</p> <p>Although we love their school, it didn&rsquo;t seem there was much conversation on the topic, but I had already heard about how Valentines Day works. A year ago that would have been an afterthought, now it&rsquo;s a disappointing miss. Even at 3, there are conversations to be had.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@jwoods3810/mlk-jr-day-takes-on-a-new-importance-with-our-adopted-daughter-549887077776"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
