Hi Book of Life podcast listeners! I've got an important podcast episode for you this month. I talked to Sarah Darer Littman about her YA novel, Some Kind of Hate. It's about radicalization and antisemitism and although it's a hard read, it really helps you understand how and why this kind of thing happens. You can listen to the podcast here (you'll also find a transcript in case you prefer to read rather than listen): https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://jewishbooks.blogspot.com/2022/09/some-kind-of-hate.html__;!!KGKeukY!zOolCgmxkWlOfLBgoDGAyFYidRkkajtMeGmrNb47njIKDFz-g8-C6_3PQQhBzqbb1eJTnuEOiqFFKJsvwHoNzDiZVbK0GsjRKcYZvzgy_Nc$
I also want to let you know about a booklet I just published through AJL, "Evaluating Jewish Representation in Children's Literature: A Guide for Libraries." It has a section on recognizing (and therefore avoiding) antisemitism in literature. You can find it here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://jewishlibraries.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/Evaluating-Jewish-Kidlit-Guide.pdf__;!!KGKeukY!zOolCgmxkWlOfLBgoDGAyFYidRkkajtMeGmrNb47njIKDFz-g8-C6_3PQQhBzqbb1eJTnuEOiqFFKJsvwHoNzDiZVbK0GsjRKcYZL1-ca60$ . It would be a real mitzvah if you'd share it with your local library system. Thanks! Heidi
