If You Spend One Day in America...

In this episode, the first part in a two part series on Police Brutality and White Childhood, I share my essay FUCK YOUR BREATH, which was published last month in Leaping Clear, and which considers the role parents of white children can, do, and should play in what represents some of the most intimate and violent encounters with White Supremacy.

In this episode, I talk to Robin Hemley, author of Borderline Citizen, among many other books. We discuss raising flexible and responsible travelers, the privileges afforded expats, finding oneself through travel, embracing a receptivity, and discovering hidden courage.

In this episode, I travel to Cali, Colombia, to talk with Leah James to discuss political estrangement, expat privilege, interracial and international relationships, hierarchies and community connections, and the future of our own young children’s American-ness.   Visit Us Today!
