Take that in. Then try wrapping your head around the fact that we’re only seeing the beginning of a destabilising planet, while remembering that GHG emissions are still rising and the companies largely causing this are making record profits.
A bit concerning, don’t you think?

Brianna - like Ellie, like me, like millions of others - has been made to feel bad about her body. But with help from fat activists, she is seeing her great intrinsic self-worth and beauty! She's wearing the swimsuit, enjoying the pool, and living her life. She's starfishing!!!

It’s elementary !
This #PrideMonth, let's celebrate diversity and unity and spread love and acceptance. Together, we can make the world a kinder place for all. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

I recognize that our Canadian context affords TLs and public libraries considerable liberties and freedoms…but a book banned anywhere affects us all. Proud to say this great book is in many of our #rtla38 #sd38learn libraries.

Organic conversations about mental health, disability justice, racial equity enlightened our learning space this year. They shared their intersectional identities when they felt safe. Perhaps local media can write a story about the beautiful humanity of @CathyWeverHWDSB students.

Climate change and environmental activism are exceedingly relevant topics for young readers today. These two middle grade novels approach the subject in very different ways. ow.ly/qENs50NKENK #EarthDay

What is our responsibility to our library patrons? Who protects our children from the censors?
