Malathi Michelle Iyengar in Writers Against Racism

Thanks to Amy Bowllan for featuring Malathi Michelle Iyengar and her book, Tan to Tamarind, as part of her "Writers Against Racism" series on her School Library Journal blog.  Malathi talks about her experience of racism as a child and what inspired her to write a book about positive representations of the color brown.  The post has generated some interesting comments as well.  Read Amy's blog here and join the conversation.
