Representation Matters: BIPOC Voices in Kid and Teen Lit

We aim to represent the entirety of our community in our collections. Materials portraying BIPOC community members in positive, loving, and affirming stories are critically important. These stories offer mirrors and windows for all our readers. Panelists will share booktalks highlighting recent books representing BIPOC voices for kid and teen readers.

Sponsored by Children’s Services Division (CSD) & Oregon Young Adult Network (OYAN)

Speakers: Diana Hernandez, Le Button, Isy Ibibo
