The Problem We All Live With (RACISM)

The Grow Your Mind Podcast

Surprise! Our podcast is back by popular demand. This episode is a BIG one, probably best for upper primary school students. Miss Thea’s awesome class talk about racism, respect, empathy and curiosity.

During the Meet The Experts section we hear from a bunch of truly wonderful kids from Gawura School, a Kindergarten to Year 6 school for local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children located in Sydney’s CBD. They share some interesting facts about their culture, as well as some words from their various language groups and they also read a powerful dreamtime story about listening and talking less.

We thank and have huge respect for all the people having brave, awkward and important conversations with their children and communities. This episode was inspired by the words of Austin Channing Brown about being a better human and the joyful attitudes of the Gawura School kids.
