Roundtable: People of Color Underrepresented in Children's Books.

From KQED Radio:

Ethnic diversity is on the rise in the U.S. So why are children's books still so white? Only about 6 percent of kids' books published in 2013 feature characters that are African-American, Latino, Asian or Native American. We take up the discussion with authors, illustrators and librarians. Does the ethnicity of characters in children's books matter to you?

Panelists include Christopher Myers, Mitali Perkins, and others!
