Last year, I taught with Ibram X. Kendi and Jason Reynolds’ book Stamped for Last year, I taught with Ibram X. Kendi and Jason Reynolds’ book Stamped for the first time. I love this book because it offers concise, understandable definitions of terms like racism, assimilation, and anti-racism. The book is not written like a typical textbook; the authors’ conversational tone helped my students feel more connected to the content. I always encourage my students to question what they are taught, and Stamped gave my students plenty to think about, question, and discuss. Our virtual class periods were never long enough. This year, I want to do what virtual learning stopped me from doing last year: give my students physical copies of Stamped. Like most of us, my students are burnt out from so much screen time. To give you an idea of how much Stamped meant to students in last year's class, I am sharing some answers to the question, "Should Ms. Stout teach Stamped again next year? Why or why not?" "I have learned more in this short time reading this book than in all my years in school learning about Black history. In school we only really hear about Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, Jr. This book is actually an interesting book to read. It's not like those thick/long textbooks we have in school that are ripped up and colored on." -Class of 2023 "Yesssss yesssss yesssss I think you should teach Stamped again, it brung up so many topics that people or kids my age rather don't think about that we should and it brings awareness and opens our eyes to the world that we live in today." -Class of 2021
