What Are You Doing to Ensure Your Children Feel Seen, Understood, and Connected to Their Identities?

Guest: Sydney Parkhurst — Transracial Adoptee & Filmmaker

What is it like to grow up as a Biracial child in a white family? Tamekia sits down with Sydney Parkhurst, a transracial adoptee, for an honest conversation about navigating identity, race, hair, and belonging. Together they explore what children may be feeling beneath the surface — and how adoptive and foster parents can listen, learn, and make conversations about race, culture, and identity a normal part of family life. This conversation is an invitation to see the world through a child's eyes. Be sure to check out Sydney's short film, Mixed Feelings.
