Parenting Beyond the Bans


Parenting Beyond the Bans - A 5-Week Abolitionist Workshop for Parents & Caregivers

Why Now:
Across the country, schools are erasing lessons on justice, banning books, and silencing conversations about race, gender, and queerness. State bans and misinformation campaigns are attempting to shape what our children know—and don’t know—about themselves and each other. In this moment, home must remain a place of resistance, love, and truth. This 5-day workshop is for those who refuse to let fear, lies, and exclusion shape the next generation. Together, we will build tools to raise children who are empathetic, justice-minded, and prepared to resist miseducation.

Week 1: Facing the Bans

Week 2: Building Empathy at Home

Week 3: Countering Miseducation

Week 4: Raising Kids Who Show Up for Others

Week 5: Homes as Sites of Resistance & Care

🌱 Who It’s For:

  • Parents and caregivers of school-aged children navigating bans and book removals

  • Families who want to raise kids who can think critically, care deeply, and act boldly

  • Community members committed to creating safe, affirming homes and neighborhoods for all children

🌱 What You’ll Leave With:

✔️ Scripts and conversation tools for countering harmful narratives with your children
✔️ Strategies to create affirming, justice-rooted homes in the face of bans
✔️ Guidance on helping kids support other kids and show up in solidarity
