A Conversation with Derrick Barnes

COLBY: A couple of weeks ago, I hopped on a call with author Derrick Barnes to talk about his new book ‘Victory. Stand! Raising My Fist for Justice’. Listening to Derrick talk about his work always leave me inspired and excited to get back into my classroom to work with young readers. I hope you enjoy the episode!
