Alli + Asha about Schools, Writing + Race - a podcast by Aurora + Kelly

from 2020-09-29T09:00

:: ::

We are getting SCHOOL-ed with co-authors, lifelong educators, parents, + great friends Alli Frank + Asha Youmans. Their debut novel, Tiny Imperfections, offers a lighthearted take on race, family, and friendship in the world of elite private schools—a product of their shared experiences as educators and also their differences: Asha, a black woman from Seattle and Alli, a white woman from rural Washington. From elitism in private schools to racism in the publishing industry, Asha + Alli use their stories from in and out of the classroom to encourage each of us to actively seek out differences and to find our inner teacher and student.
