A Place to Belong
A Place to Belong
Hardcover by Amber O'Neal Johnston
Gone are the days when socially conscious parents felt comfortable teaching their children to merely tolerate others. Instead, they are looking for a way to authentically embrace the fullness of their diverse communities.
A Place to Belong offers a path forward for families to honor their cultural heritage and champion diversity in the context of daily family life by:
- Fostering open dialogue around discrimination, race, gender, disability, and class
- Teaching “hard history” in an age-appropriate way
- Curating a diverse selection of books and media choices in which children see themselves and people who are different
- Celebrating cultural heritage through art, music, and poetry
- Modeling activism and engaging in community service projects as a family
Amber O’Neal Johnston, a homeschooling mother of four, shows parents of all backgrounds how to create a home environment where children feel secure in their own personhood and culture, enabling them to better understand and appreciate people who are racially and culturally different.
A Place to Belong gives parents the tools to empower children to embrace their unique identities while feeling beautifully tethered to their global community.
