A guide for families of all backgrounds to celebrate cultural heritage and embrace inclusivity in the home and beyond. Gone are the days when socially conscious parents felt comfortable teaching their children to merely tolerate others. Instead, they are looking for a way to authentically embrace the fullness of their diverse communities. A Place to Belong offers a path forward for families to honor their cultural heritage and champion diversity in the context of daily family life by: - Fostering open dialogue around discrimination, race, gender, disability, and class - Teaching "hard history" in an age-appropriate way - Curating a diverse selection of books and media choices in which children see themselves and people who are different - Celebrating cultural heritage through art, music, and poetry - Modeling activism and engaging in community service projects as a family Amber O'Neal Johnston, a homeschooling mother of four, shows parents of all backgrounds how to create a home environment where children feel secure in their own personhood and culture, enabling them to better understand and appreciate people who are racially and culturally different. A Place to Belong gives parents the tools to empower children to embrace their unique identities while feeling beautifully tethered to their global community.

Amber gives us a great way to bring discussions of diversity and unity into our homes. She embraces celebrating your own culture and heritage while learning about others. Her goal is not to have us all meld together, but to learn into others and ourselves in a way to make the world a more beautiful place together. The goal is to expose our families to different cultures and groups, not to agree with them, but to recognize their humanity. Amber encourages us to lead with growth and authenticity, not from fear. While I do not homeschool my children, I found this book to be beneficial for my family (and myself) as we try to expand our understandings of those around us and create places of belonging. We need to take the time to learn and listen to each other.
