A flurry of resources about raising tolerant children

Here is a link to an article posted by Dr. Alex Barzvi, a child psychologist, that passes along some practical advice on why and how to talk to kids about race from early age in a way that will foster tolerance.  The article was written by Charlton McIlwain, a professor at NYU:    http://www.drbarzvi.com/2010/05/15/the-truth-about-race-how-to-talk-about-it-with-your-children/

I also found this document entitled "How to Be an Anti-Racist Parent: Real-Life Parents Share Real-Life Tips " that provides a ton of good information.  http://curlykidz.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/how_to_be_an_anti-racist_parent.pdf

And here is a blog that is devoted to the topic, which I haven't had a chance to study in great detail yet, but plan to spend some time with in the coming days:  http://loveisntenough.com/  And an article posted on that blog that I consider very good: http://loveisntenough.com/2011/07/20/white-noise-white-adults-raising-white-children-to-resist-white-supremacy-2/

And here a thought-provoking article by Allison Briscoe-Smith, a professor and psychologist at Berkeley:  http://greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/rubbing_off/
