Welcome to Litsy!

I don‘t watch tv during the day but I had to turn on C-SPAN to watch Senator Cory Booker during his marathon resistance to what is happening. ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿

Went out to buy paint. Oops.

This bothers me. This troubles me greatly. This feels just a little too MAGA for my liking. Peaceful protest is NOT violence by definition. Period. (Not saying everyone was peaceful, but to say that any entire movement is violent because some are is reductionist.)

I love that this story talks about the civil rights movement. I think it would be a great history lesson and conversation starter about standing up for the things you believe in. I would read this to a 3rd or 4th grade class.

“Her song is strong. Mama Africa will not give up! She will see her people free.“

The pictures in this book look like they were painted on the pages. The use of color shows the emotion on each page, anger, sadness, happiness, etc. There is a soft movement to the images as it paints a picture for the reader.
