SUMMARY:When the Schools Shut Down - Book Talk and Signing
DESCRIPTION:Author Yolanda Gladden Children’s Book Discussion  \nSaturday February 19th at 12:00pm \nFree and open to the public \nAn awe-inspiring autobiographical picture book about a young African American girl who lived during the shutdown of public schools in Farmville\, Virginia\, following the landmark civil rights case Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka. \nMost people think that the Brown vs. Board of Education decision of 1954 meant that schools were integrated with deliberate speed. But the children of Prince Edward County located in Farmville\, Virginia\, who were prohibited from attending formal schools for five years knew differently\, including Yolanda. \nTold by Yolanda Gladden herself\, cowritten by Dr. Tamara Pizzoli and with illustrations by Keisha Morris\, When the Schools Shut Down is a true account of the unconstitutional effort by white lawmakers of this small Virginia town to circumvent racial justice by denying an entire generation of children an education. \nMost importantly\, it is a story of how one community triumphed together\, despite the shutdown.
