- #PLA2026: Colson Whitehead on Genre, Persistence, and Writing Without ShortcutsAt the Author Lunch with Colson Whitehead, the conversation moved between reading, rejection, labor, and artificial intelligence. Whitehead spoke as an indoor child shaped by The Twilight Zone and speculative fiction, as a college student turned away from creative writing classes, and as a writer who built pages around a day job. For those of us in youth services, the lunch offered a useful frame for how reading and writing lives actually develop. Genre, Literary Formation Whitehead described himself as a child who preferred staying inside. He traced part of his imaginative life through The Twilight Zone, science fiction, and related forms and said that college reading helped him see the connections between literary fiction and the genres he already loved. He even described Beckett as a form of realism. Whitehead’s account gives youth services a useful correction. Libraries still inherit false hierarchies about what counts as serious reading. Whitehead’s… The post #PLA2026: Colson Whitehead on Genre, Persistence, and Writing Without Shortcuts appeared first on ALSC Blog.
- Presenting at #PLA2026The other day I was browsing my inbox for an email and I found the initial email that I sent my colleague about collaborating for a presentation at PLA. It shocked me to see that that was nearly a year ago, when today we finally got to share our presentation with #PLA2026 attendees. My colleague, children’s librarian Claire Foagarty, and I collaborated this year to share some inclusive practices and programs that we host at our respective library branches. In our session “Building Inclusive Programming for Youth with Disabilities,” we introduced concepts like person-first language, social stories, and more to show conference attendees how to adapt their existing programs to be more inclusive of youth with disabilities. While the lead-up to the session was nerve-wracking, I did feel as though the overall session went well! When we found out our session would be at 8:00 AM on the last day… The post Presenting at #PLA2026 appeared first on ALSC Blog.
- The Bund: Fighting Fascism, Fighting Zionism (w/ Molly Crabapple)In 1897, a small group of Jewish Marxists on the outskirts of the Russian empire founded the General Jewish Labour Bund. The Bundists were revolutionary socialists, unapologetic internationalists, champions of the Yiddish language, and implacable foes of nationalism of every stripe, including (especially) Zionism. Bundists helped found the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party, organized militias to defend Jews against pogroms, fought on the frontlines of the 1905 and 1917 revolutions, fought fascists wherever they found them, and helped lead the Warsaw Ghetto uprising. The history of the Bund is largely forgotten today — in part because Bundists were such early and prescient critics of Zionism. As one of its leader said in 1933, “If Jewish nationalism, as a general rule, is not bloodthirsty, this is only out of necessity, not virtue; if an appropriate opportunity arose, Jewish nationalism would show its sharp teeth and nails no less than the nationalisms of other nations.” Thankfully, Crabapple spent the last seven years rediscovering the Bund’s fascinating history for her new book: Here Where We Live Is Our Country: The Story of the Jewish Bund. It was thrilling to have her on to discuss it. “For leftist Jews longing for resources within our own past for combating the Zionist death cult,” Crabapple says, “the Bund is a model.” Further Reading: Molly Crabapple, Here Where We Live Is Our Country: The Story of the Jewish Bund, (April 2026) Sam Adler-Bell, “For leftist Jews, the Bund is a model’: the radical history behind one of Europe’s biggest socialist movements,” The Guardian, Apr 7, 2026.
