Just when you think Jackson Jobe is letting it eat with his fastball today, he throws Darick Hall a sweeper, a changeup, then another sweeper -- this one at 3107 rpm -- for a three-pitch strikeout to end his second inning.

if you’re cis and you wanna do good for trans people, talk to the transphobe-adjacent individuals in your life. they don’t know us, have never met one of us, and will never listen to us. don’t just tell us you support us in an echo chamber of ppl who all agree, get in other people’s business

'Watsons' has been hugely important in my work as a 5th grade teacher and elementary media specialist. The humor and sweetness of the characters allow young learners to access the realities of Jim Crow and the horrors of the KKK church bombing.

Why does ‘The Watsons Go to Birmingham - 1963’ still resonate? It's a masterful exploration of trauma. Author Christopher Paul Curtis wanted to "show how young people try to deal with tragedies and see things in ways that we as adults don't see." #Velshi #VelshiBannedBookClub

Velshi Banned Book Club: ‘The Watsons Go to Birmingham – 1963’ by Christopher Paul Curtis

The beloved children’s classic and Newbery Honor award-winner, ‘The Watsons Go to Birmingham – 1963’ by Christopher Paul Curtis. Although the church bombing is central to the plot of the novel, this “is the story of a family,” says Curtis, who uses the juxtaposition to make his point. “It's not a story, per se, about the civil rights movement or about hatred, – it's a story of a family and a group of children's reaction to an event that they don't understand.”
