I do a good job with a variety of sources and works for my twelth grade English students, but I need to work and add some things to my 9th grade English classes. I teach mostly texts from either white writers or black writers. Although this does cover most of my students population, it is important to include others such as Hispanic, Asian, and Native American. Especially today, it is important to include LGBTQ authors and poets to the classroom experience.
Also from a parent perspective, I want my two little kids who read books before bed all the time-I want to make sure they are getting exposed to images and words regarding other races, cultures, and perspectives. Hopefully this will help them to grow with less bias toward others they don't know.
