With the recent news of the York Central School District book ban (only just a few hours from where Kristen lives, by the way), we thought it was important to re-share this amazing episode with the delightful, brilliant Meena Harris. She’s an activist, strategist, mom of two, and now, author of the children’s books, Ambitious Girl and Kamala and Maya’s Big Idea.
Even though YCSD overturned their ruling, hundreds of school districts across the country are trying to do the same thing. In fact, just one school district over from where Kristen lives (PS: What’s up, Pennsylvania?) has already banned books and terms and a whole bunch of things that celebrate differences in people.
