They begin when children are young, slowly growing, and exposed to prejudice in their classrooms, after-school activities, and, yes, even in their homes, no matter how enlightened their parents may consider themselves to be. The only way to have a more just and equitable world—not to mention more broad-minded, empathetic children—is for parents to closely examine biases beginning in childhood and how they infiltrate our kids' lives. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn her new book, Unraveling Bias: How Prejudice Has Shaped Children for Generations and Why It's Time to Break the Cycle, Dr. Brown will uncover what scientists have learned about how children are impacted by biases, and how we adults can help protect them from those biases.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 151 x 229 x 22 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781953295552\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Christia Spears Brown","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44099907584250,"sku":"9781953295552","price":12.13,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646331585970_book.jpg?v=1646980306","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/unraveling-bias-how-prejudice-has-shaped-children-for-generations-and-why-its-time-to-break-the-cycle-9781953295552","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
