Fare of the Free Child
Fare of the Free Child podcast focuses on Black people, Native Indigenous people, and People of Color (BIPOC) families who practice unschooling and other forms of Self-directed, decolonized living and learning. Each weekly episode examines a particular way that we’ve accepted coercive, emotionally and physically damaging habits as a normal part of adult-child relationships. With a focus on deschooling one’s self, decolonizing education, and exploring radical self-expression, this podcast challenges and informs us to walk toward a model for living with children that believes in trusting and respecting children and ourselves. #fofcpod #raisingfreepeople

EP. 120: Alternatives to Toxic Whiteness
I got an email in response to episode 115 (On White Privilege and Pleasure) that left me disappointed and upset about another experience with white fragility targeted at this podcast. Rather than stewing and ranting with my family (best believe we did it already), I’m using the email I got from a concerned white person about episode 115 as a teachable moment.
It’s my first time having Kris, Marley, and Sage here on FOFC, and I believe this is the perfect topic to hear everyone’s opinion on. By using his emails as an avatar for white fragility and the sugar-coated racism so often felt in even the most “progressive” of SDE spaces, we’ll examine this kind of mentality, its in-depth issues, and how to do better.
