“The system isn’t broken” is a series of conversations with early childhood policy experts. Hosted by Patrick MacFarlane, our podcast takes listeners beyond the surface level conversations to understand why early care and education programs fail Black children, families, and child care providers. “The System Isn’t Broken” was created to add context to the anti-racism conversation in the early childhood policy space. For policy advocates, legislative staff, elected officials, and child development professionals, this podcast is designed to challenge your thinking about the system, and who it is designed to serve. Listen everywhere podcasts are available.
