~ Submitted by the Parents Diversity Council
In tandem with Bedford High’s reading of Don’t Ask Me Where I’m From and student/author visit, the Parents Diversity Council offers a connection to this project by inviting parents and community members to read the book, then attend an in-person discussion with Ms. De Leon. (But you are welcome to attend even if you haven’t read the book!)
Jennifer’s novel of a Latinx student accepted into a suburban METCO program inspires empathy and encourages getting to know people as individuals instead of types or skin colors, emphasizing that no single group’s experience or background is the same for everyone in that group.
Copies of the book are available from the Bedford Public Library (digital or print) and a limited number of free copies are available from the PDC – email [email protected]
