E31 | Good Trouble with York Central Banned Book Club
Members and advisors of the York Central Banned Book Club and Panther Anti Racist Union (PARU) located in York PA, join me to discuss the student activism that led to a book ban reversal in York Central School District. Renee Ellis (HS student), Patricia A. Jackson (HS teacher & author), and Ben Hodge (HS teacher) discuss their journey, what motivated them to take action, what members have experienced and learned through this process, what's the latest on curriculum materials "freeze", and what advice they have for other student activists pushing back against book bans and censorship.

E25-It’s a Big/Small World - Sheena Kelly
Sheena Kelly, Teacher Librarian at Ascend International School in Mumbai, India, gives us an update on her role at Ascend and life in India. Sheena faces many of the same challenges & obstacles all TLs encounter but w/an international twist. Great discussion about how she’s approached building a PLN & tapping local expertise to help her quickly come up to speed & find resources for her patrons. She also discusses cultural differences and how she’s been navigating those waters.
