We’re excited to welcome a guest to The Children’s Table! This episode features Dr. Cristina Rhodes, an Assistant Professor of English at Shippensburg University, PA, where she teaches courses on culturally diverse literatures of the United States, ethnic literature, and academic writing. Hear Dr. Rhodes talk about the diversity of El Día de Los Muertos (and how kids’ media gets it wrong, and gets it right), the relationship between futurity for Latinx youth and bodily transformation, the compelling story of 17-year-old Latinx activist Carmelita Torres, and the irrepressible spirit of current young Latina activists – and get some reading recommendations along the way.
Follow Dr. Rhodes on Twitter @_crisRhodes, and find her research on the open-access sources Research on Diversity in Youth Literature and Latinxs in Kid Lit. See the reading list for more of Dr. Rhodes’s scholarship and links to some of the titles she mentions.
