A Juneteenth Reading List
All Of It - A podcast by WNYC
This year is only the second time Juneteenth has been a public school holiday in NYC and the first time it has been recognized as a federal holiday. This month, the New York Public Library put together a list of books for educators and parents to help teach kids about this important day as well as significant historical moments in Black History. Shauntee Burns-Simpson, Manager of School Outreach for the NYPL, joins us to talk about some of the books on this list.
