Watching @BishopNaomi give a webinar on the American Indian Library Association& #39;s Youth Literature Awards. AILA President Cindy Hohl introduced Naomi, and then we& #39;re off! Will tweet as I can.
Great start from Naomi! She begins by showing a map of Native Nations in AZ. My guess is many ppl in the webinar know that Native ppl are still here but some don& #39;t, and it is helpful to show this sort of map.
Ah! Next slide is Sarah Park Dahlen& #39;s infographic!

In the last webinar I saw Naomi do, she reflected on the body of books selected for AILA awards in the past. She poses great questions about them, patterns over time, etc.
