Racism is a difficult and uncomfortable topic to discuss, but nonetheless an important topic for us as parents to talk about with our children. Are you afraid of exposing them to too much? Are you afraid of not knowing what to say? Today Lisa and Jamie share their experiences with their children and share practical and natural ways this topic can be integrated into your family conversations.
Shanera Williamson, host of Brown Mama Bear Podcast joins us as today’s expert. Shanera is also a wife and mom of three adult daughters. Brown Mama Bear Podcast is about her experience raising her daughters in a predominately white circle. Shanera is used to the tough conversations that we must have with our children living in the society we do today. The mission of her podcast is to support parents in the topic of race by providing tips, encouragement, and sharing her own experiences.
As always, we appreciate you leaning in and learning with us!

Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders
Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders takes you back to 1983, when two teenagers were found murdered, execution-style, on a quiet Texas hill. What followed was decades of rumors, false leads, and a case that law enforcement could never seem to close. Now, veteran investigative journalist M. William Phelps reopens the file — uncovering new witnesses, hidden evidence, and a shocking web of deaths that may all be connected. Over nine gripping episodes, Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders unravels a story 42 years in the making… and asks the question: who’s really been hiding the truth?
