Poverty and Privilege: Intersectionality of Race and Class in Young People's Literature
How
do our shared or differing cultural backgrounds affect the relationships and
influence we have with our students? Two white, award-winning authors and
former educators discuss how unpacking the racial and class biases of our
identities better enable us to foster more positive and authentic relationships
with the young people in our lives. Session recorded during the 2021 AASL
National Conference.
