E3: "Roots" by Alex Haley (EmmyB w/ Tara Bleazard)
In this episode, EmmyB and Tara Bleazard discuss the first time that Tara read "Roots" by Alex Haley. She finished the book, March of 1991, in the wake of the Rodney King beatings and it changed her perspective forever! She gives us great insight on how to combat white privilege, and teach our children the meaning of equality exposing them to heroes like Harriet Tubman. Recommended book for young readers: "Booked" by Kwame Alexander, "Track Series" by Jason Reynolds, "Ordinary People Who Changed the World" series.
