In this episode, Pakistani American Kirin Nabi discusses the middle grade, own voices book: “A Place At The Table” by Saadia Faruqi & Laura Shovan. A real and honest discussion about prejudice, hate rhetoric, and code switching, Kirin openly discusses it all. Her invitation to reach across barriers to create unity, is genuine and full of hope.
For all of us who want to do better- her voice is one to listen to. Kirin sums it up with this: “You don’t have to be best friends, but you can Be Kind.”
