Publisher's summary
Every human being is part of a bigger family, which is figuratively represented by the family tree. We have roots that extend beyond places and cultures of our current residences. This is particularly true for people in diaspora. Our roots still weigh a lot into our everyday living irrespective of geographical distance and time. Thus, would it not be beneficial to know and explore the advantages in our roots and avoid losing out, and losing deep? This is the main message of this book, Voices from Home: Wisdom from our Diasporic Roots.
•This book will provide inspiration, some incentives, and a compass for teachable minds to explore and tap into the wealth of their roots.
•It provides insights on the key dynamics and interplay of cultures, underpinning motivations, and extended family structures of typical first-generation migrants.
•It informs global audiences about lived experiences of people of migrant backgrounds starting with the Australian context.
•It contributes to the value-adding conversations around the themes of identity, cross-cultural intelligence, sustainable migration, etc.
•It provides hints and tips for relevant policy makers, service providers, and other government officials, especially in the areas of sustainable migration.
•It is a resource material for intending, new, and emerging migrants as part of preparations for their migration journeys, as well as references for lessons learnt so they can position themselves for more meaningful experiences.

With cultural intelligence, or CQ, you can lead effectively in any context.

Story
Talking about race means naming the reality of white privilege and hierarchy. How do we talk about race honestly, then, without making our children feel bad about being white? Most importantly, how do we do any of this in age-appropriate ways? While a great deal of public discussion exists in regard to the impact of race and racism on children of color, meaningful dialogue about and resources for understanding the impact of race on white children are woefully absent. Raising White Kids steps into that void.
