Thank you for a wonderful presentation!

really fascinating presentation! :)

I have gotten a lot out of this. I have been writing down all the works you referenced, and will have to study more.

I grew up with Uncle Remus stories (showing my age). What has been the impact of that body of literature?

How do we explain the need to nurture our children through representation in an unapologetic way that rallies multi-cultural support without evoking criticism of reverse racism? Is it important to focus efforts on this goal before we attempt to expand access to a broader variety of literature to all?

No problem.

Thank you for this wonderful presentation! Identifying as gay, I understand how important representation matters. Have there been any noticed benefits in the classroom and in society in general caused by the increased prevalence of minority-centric stories in the classroom?

well said. thanks again. would love to hear yu speak again
