How To Talk To Kids About Race

Jason Rieve
Tom Luljak and Erin Winkler

As an adult, talking about race can be some of the most difficult conversations we can have. It requires us to recognize our own biases and attitudes in a way that can be unsettling.

So, if we are having a tough time with the topic, how should we talk to our children about race?

On this edition of UWM Today we’re going to meet a UWM researcher who is trying to answer that question. Erin Winkler is an associate professor of Africology at UWM’s College of Letters and Sciences.

Tom Luljak hosted UWM Today on WUWM for more than two decades and is the inaugural host of Curious Campus.
