In her words, "I have a tall task in raising kids who have privilege to move through the world honoring principles of equity and justice. I've aimed to center social justice in my parenting from day one - and the more caregivers I can partner with on this journey, the better!" Angela has taught in a variety of settings over the past decade and is a co-founder of the Root Social Justice Center, ACT for Social Justice, and Equity Solutions. She has an MA in Social Justice from the School for International Training.</p><p><b>Chrissy Colón Bradt </b>is an educator and mom to a 4 year old, biracial, white-presenting child.
