Description

We are excited to introduce The Watsons Go to Birmingham-1963, a historical fiction novel about an African American family from Flint, Michigan.


In The Watsons we are transported into the lives of an African American family of the 60's, woven together by themes of faith, love, and resilience. Through the lens of this unique family and their intertwining stories, we explore the universal truths that unite us as children of God while honoring the unique journeys that shape each character.


In Episode five of this season we talk to Olga App, Fourth Grade teacher, and Betsy Watson, a Teacher’s Assistant in TK. Shaun Satterfield and crew discuss acceptance in chapters 11-12 of the book while exploring the theme of racism.
