HU students put on community dialogue about racism
th-graders Sophie Krotinger and Maia George.
“I want to acknowledge the limitations of talking about race, responsibility and privilege, as our class at Harwood and our community certainly is predominantly white and middle class. But, we want to begin this conversation,” said Kathy Cadwell as she welcomed everyone.
She then read the prompt: “What should students, teachers and community members do to acknowledge and confront individual and systemic racism in our schools and community?” Sophie Krotinger and Maia George then said a few words. “It’s been really inspiring to work with my peers this year to learn about these issues together,” said George.
