Tell Me Another Story, is an inspiring 30-minute overview of diversity in children’s literature that highlights the dedication of intellectual and artistic giants, past and present, whose efforts have uplifted children’s literature, from W.E.B. Du Bois, Augusta Baker, Pura Belpré and Ezra Jack Keats, to Pat Cummings, Marley Dias, Grace Lin, Christopher Myers, and Andrea Davis Pinkney. It clarifies the enormous need for us to tell our children another, more inclusive story. This is a film you will want to share with your students, colleagues and friends.
Produced by the EJK Foundation, in association with the de Grummond Children’s Literature Collection and The Office Performing Arts + Film Tell Me Another Story was directed by Damani Baker and edited by Jon Henry Fine, with original music by Meshell Ndegeocello.
