Uncle Devin interviews author Lesa Cline-Ransome about her book, "Before She Was Harriett." https://www.lesaclineransome.com/
This book was selected to be a part of the University of Maryland Baltimore County's Diverse Books Project. In April 2023, WEE Nation Radio started a partnership with UMBC's Sherman Center for Early Learning in Urban Communities by offering our WEE Nation Reads program as a resource to participating teachers and families in their Diverse Books Projects (DBP).  https://shermancenter.umbc.edu/diverse-books-project/
This project aims to ensure that early childhood educators at their partner schools have access to high-quality, diverse children’s books and opportunities to share ideas and insights about their use.
Books identified by UMBC will be featured in our WEE Nation Reads segment, which includes a reading of each of the selected books, children’s music related to each book, and an interview with the author or publisher.
WEE Nation Reads takes place every Monday through Friday, from April 11, 2023, through May 18, airing twice a day at 1:00 PM and 6:00 PM EST on WEE Nation Radio.
Parents and teachers can listen by downloading our mobile app available in Google Play and the Apple Store. Download your app today. This is our way of celebrating and raising awareness of the critical need for children’s books about “different cultures, races, languages, and traditions.” www.WEENationRadio.com
