Episode Notes
This episode is brought to us by permission from the Multicultural Affairs Committee (MCAC). This discussion was recorded at the American Council of the Blind National Convention in Schaumburg, Illinois on July 5, 2023.
Panelists Jennifer Arnott, Pam Shaw, and Tristan Snyder discuss how recent laws that lead to the removal of books are rewriting history and affecting the blind and other marginalized groups. They highlight the debate over Helen Keller's existence as a key example of this issue. The conversation emphasizes the need to maintain a full historical record in schools and libraries to support equality and rights for all communities.
