Real Talk Blocks
Mahogany 2.5x1.75x1.75in, poplar 3x1.75x1.75in and birch 3.5x1.75x1.75in, handmade, hand burned 3 house set with hand burned maple 4x1.75in card holder and double sided reflection question card all packaged in a 4”x6” Real Talk Block box. Partial proceeds from each purchase donated locally to support the ongoing work at the Hamilton Centre for Civic Inclusion
My Dad and Me Everyday Ornaments created Real Talk Blocks in collaboration with Pretty Grit Hamilton to address the importance of starting challenging conversations about racism, privilege and oppression present in systems of white supremacy, how we may be upholding these systems and ways in which we can start doing the life long work of dismantling these systems to help create a more equitable future. The idea that these conversations need to start at home and in our communities and from there can ripple out into the world to create lasting change. It may not be easy but it is necessary.
We are not professional anti-racist educators but we recognize the need for systemic change and the potential barriers standing in the way of these changes.
