This year include teens and tweens.  Educate them about the humanitarian crisis that continues on the U.S.-Mexico border. According to  No More Deaths \/ No M\u00e1s Muertes<\/a>, an Arizona-based advocacy group, “no one has any information on the role of public libraries and the digital search for missing migrants”.  Similarly the Colibri Center for Human Rights<\/a> reports that they do not “make any targeted use of public libraries for…casework or outreach. However, many families learn about us and contact us via Facebook or our website…some of these families use public libraries as a resource to get on the internet.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Introduce teens and tweens to Duncan Tonatiuh<\/a>‘s work through Pancho Rabbit and the Coyote<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, his art, his blog and videos of interviews with this exceptional artist, activist and author.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
