297- Empowering Kids with Social Justice Education with Dr. Shelby Kretz, Ph.D.

You're listening to Voices of Your Village, and today we get to dive in with Dr. Shelby Kretz to chat about empowering kids with social justice education. Dr. Shelby Kretz is the creator of Little Justice Leaders, an organization that provides social justice education resources for educators and families. Little Justice Leaders offers a monthly subscription for parents and teachers that provides resources each month to learn about social justice. Little Justice Leaders has sent over 17 ,000 learning kits to parents and teachers around the world, and Shelby earned her Ph.D. in education from UCLA, and her dissertation explored social justice education at the elementary school level. Over the past decade, Shelby's worked with thousands of parents, teachers, and school leaders to bring social justice education to these children. It was such a rich discussion to get to hang with her, and I especially loved diving into of the breakdown with Rach at the end of what this looks like with our kids' IRL as parents and how it shows up.
