Camden Elementary School invited several African-American community members, including Mayor Alfred-Mae Drakeford and WIS Sunrise anchor Leland Pinder, to read books with diverse characters to students on Monday, February 19. This initiative, actualized by librarian Tracey Hanna, is for the encouragement and empowerment of diverse voices in the Camden community by inviting people of color to read and share books that celebrate African-American culture. Some of the titles read included “Mr. George Baker,’’ about generations crossing the divide in pursuit of learning, and “Crown: Ode to the Fresh Cut” by Derrick D. Barnes, considered a 2017 best book by NPR, the Huffington Post, and the Los Angeles Times, among others.
