In honor of my grandpa, who defied restrictive covenants and whose civil act of disobedience was simply being himself. This is the back story to MIGHTY INSIDE, about 13 y.o. Melvin Robinson, who's growing up #Black in 1950s #Spokane #PNW (as my dad did). youtube.com/watch?v=4SOq6Fw0…
I spoke at a school this week where 4 kids won a STEM contest w/ their idea for a kevlar backpack to save lives. Proud of them. Horrified by their felt need for this invention. Please sign: chng.it/J95wRv6R via @Change #EnoughIsEnough #kidsoverguns #GunControlLawsNOW
Absolutely honored and grateful 🙏 Thanks to my family, @ArthurALevine1, @serendipitylit for believing in me and Melvin. In honor of my grandparents, my dad, his sibs, and all boundary-defying people. #blackpioneers #africanamericanpride #SpokaneWA

Been thinking about the power of the collective and then read this in Katherine Locke’s The Girl w/ the Red 🎈: “Collective memory is more powerful than collective amnesia.” Thank you for the reminder @Bibliogato #stories #truth #StrongerTogether #books #bannedbooks
Two quintessential storytellers! This will be a riveting conversation no doubt especially if you are interested in the #writing and #creating process. #kidsbooks #kidlit #MGBookChat
