6/15/2022 The Gift of the Struggle - Book Bans Hurt Everyone and Why Representation MattersRead NowI met Jarret Dapier (Author) and Andrea Tsurumi (Illustrator) when a resident of Spanish Fort, Alabama wanted to have their book banned from the public library because the main characters were gay men. Their book "Mr. Watson's Chickens," is a fun story about a couple getting overrun by chickens and the chaos that ensues. There is nothing inappropriate in the story, and if you replaced one of the men with a woman, no one would complain. In this interview, we discuss why fighting on the local level matters and how we can all contribute to a greater, more inclusive world. Please tune in and leave your comments int he episode.
