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. Coming from TarcherPerigee (a division of Penguin Random House) in May 2022 and available for pre-order here. This beginner-friendly book introduces the five elements―water, wood, fire, earth, and metal―as a system for understanding the cycles and rhythms of your body, mind, and soul. With a practical approach that weaves together Eastern medicine, western psychology, and African ancestral principles of spirituality, Lindsay Fauntleroy teaches you how to use the elements to improve physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health.
