Jacqueline Woodson on REMEMBER US
\u201cI expect my reader to meet me halfway with their own experiences and fill in the white space, fill in what's left unsaid.\u201d
Remember Us\xa0by Jacqueline Woodson brings the reader to Brooklyn in the 70s to examine memory and acceptance through the eyes of one girl from her childhood and beyond. Woodson joins us to talk about writing for young people, the themes of childhood and nostalgia, creating identity through literature and more with Miwa Messer, host of Poured Over.
This episode of Poured Over was hosted by Executive Producer Miwa Messer and mixed by Harry Liang.\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f
