On this episode of Parenting for Liberation, Trina speaks with Nia Eubanks-Dixon, the founder and creator of Creative Praxis, an art-based, healing-centered, training organization for youth, educators, and community members working towards liberation. Nia is a therapeutic restorative community artist, international trainer, and mother of two. It’s back to school time, so Trina and Nia discuss ways we can help our children understand boundaries, advocate for themselves in educational spaces, as well helping kids create their own safe spaces at home.
