Recenzii
Karen Sands-O'Connor's British Activist Authors Addressing Children of Colour brilliantly explores the history of activist writing for children of colour in Britain, the historical context in which this writing appeared as well as the impact activist writing had and continues to have on its readers. The illuminating book provides deep insights into the agendas and politics of activist writing about and for children of colour, and most importantly, encourages readers to rethink dominant white perspectives in children's literature and its publishing industry. This thought-provoking and engaging study is an important contribution to understand literary activism for children in Great Britain, recommended for specialists and non-specialists alike.
