Portledge in the Now.

PE: Parent Book Club

The next Parents Association Book Club read will consist of a diverse selection that will continue moving forward our work with DEI as we dive into honest and productive conversations about race and how to become an anti-racist. The selections give us the opportunity to examine excerpts from books, documentaries, articles, and Ted Talks that provide the opportunity for discussions, engage in dialogue, and educate ourselves and apply practical strategies and skill-based framework that supports conversations with good intentions.

Read, watch, analyze, and enjoy these selections; they are all informative resources that facilitate authentic and productive conversations about race and racism with respect and grounded on good intentions.
