Teaching for Change

Channie Waites delivers a heartfelt performance that perfectly captures the essence of Septima Poinsette Clark's story. Her narration is warm and approachable, making the dense historical content accessible to children. The pacing keeps the momentum going without rushing through the details, ensuring listeners are fully engaged from start to finish. While some parts might require a bit more context for very young ears, Waites’ ability to convey the gravity of events makes it a valuable learning experience. A standout feature is her handling of the intergenerational relationship between Yvonne and her grandmother, adding depth to the narrative.
