5-6:30 pm
Book Talk and Conversation: Why is Palestine Missing in Young Adult / Children’s Literature?
Alice will discuss the history and politics of her own journey as a writer, how she got into writing a YA book, and why she chooses to focus on Palestine amidst a prevailing absence of the subject in Young Adult and Children’s literature. She will share reflections on why that is so, what happens to teachers and librarians who teach Palestine, and why this is important in a broader sense in terms of antiracist, anticolonial education.
Alice will also discuss the inspiration for her new young adult novel, Finding Melody Sullivan, that seeks to creatively address this issue, and offer a reading from the book.
