From slave masters’ economic stake in bonded women’s fertility to government programs that coerced thousands of poor Black women into being sterilized as late as the 1970s, these abuses pointed to the degradation of Black motherhood—and the exclusion of Black women’s reproductive needs in mainstream feminist and civil rights agendas. ]]> 2020-11-10 15:46:11 UTC https://padlet.com/meaghanmulholland/MoreheadBookFair/wish/909046316 meaghanmulholland https://padlet.com/meaghanmulholland/MoreheadBookFair/wish/909054551 Issues tied to race and culture continue to be a part of the landscape of America's schools and classrooms.

What can we do within our homes, communities and schools? Should we teach our children to be "colorblind"? Or, should we teach them to notice race? What roles do we want to equip them to play in addressing racism when they encounter it? What strategies will help our children learn to function well in a diverse nation?]]> 2020-11-10 15:52:02 UTC https://padlet.com/meaghanmulholland/MoreheadBookFair/wish/909077890 https://padlet.com/meaghanmulholland/MoreheadBookFair/wish/917006403 "This tender exploration of loss illuminates how kindness, empathy, and friendship can lift our spirits and see us through many tomorrows."

"There's a really big bear in the backyard." This is how three children meet Stillwater, a giant panda who moves into the neighborhood and tells amazing tales. To Addy he tells a story about the value of material goods. To Michael he pushes the boundaries of good and bad. And to Karl he demonstrates what it means to hold on to frustration.
