""This bold and necessary collection brings together scholars, educators, and writers who challenge assumptions and ideas about youth literature, calling for a deeper, more intentional engagement with ethnic studies frameworks … Highly recommended."" — School Library Journal ""Jiménez García, Rodríguez, and their contributors take the field of youth literature to task, pointing out the ways it has been complicit in perpetuating systemic oppression and white supremacy. While scholars of children's and young adult literature will certainly benefit from the volume, the editors also take care to introduce youth literature to scholars in ethnic studies."" — Isabel Millán, author of Coloring into Existence: Queer of Color Worldmaking in Children's Literature
