Latinx Kidlit Book Festival - “Wild Tongues Can’t Be Tamed (Anthology): A Discussion on Diaspora”

Participants: Saraciea Fennel, Jasminne Mendez, Mark Oshiro, and Lilliam Rivera, Natasha Diaz, moderator

Edited by The Bronx Is Reading founder Saraciea J. Fennell, Wild Tongues Can’t Be Tamed is a groundbreaking anthology highlighting different myths and stereotypes about the Latinx diaspora. Wild Tongues is full of sorrow and joy, speculative stories, and homespun tales. Fennell joins contributors Natasha Diaz, Jasminne Mendez, Lilliam Rivera, and Mark Oshiro for a dialogue on their stories, experiences, and what it is to be “Latine.”
