Celebrating Diverse Voices - AAPI Authors [S5 E150]

Listen to the full episode below:

We love sharing and celebrating diverse voices here at Brave New Teaching, and today is no exception. With May being AAPI (Asian American and Pacific Islander) month, what better time to highlight some of our fan favorites written by AAPI authors.

The texts that we’re sharing today are loved by both us and our students. We literally can’t keep them on our classroom shelves! From memoirs to dystopia to YA romance, we’ve got a bit of everything. Get your library cards or credit cards ready, because you’re going to want them all!

We’re going to have extended episodes of this conversation, plus resources, inside BNT Happy Hour. You can join us inside Happy Hour for only $5 per month! Sign up here.
