Empathy Reading List

2/15/2017

1 Comment

 
In a time of great division in our country, we are reminded of how important multicultural empathy will be on both sides in healing the hurts and bringing us together as one nation.  Studies show that reading books helps to build empathy, and as librarians we have an opportunity to encourage students' empathy development through reading. As such, we would like to crowd source a reading list with a multicultural lens to share broadly with librarians and teachers of all stripes. Please take a moment to add your title recommendations here. We will share the list via the MSLA Listserv and social media once it is compiled. Thank you again for your contributions!
