“What percentage of children’s books published in the UK in 2017 had a main character who was not white? How can we talk about Black, Asian, Arabic and other non-white people without lumping them together in yet another acronym? What are the right and wrong ways to “do representation” in books? Tune in as @sophiem_ng and @amyindiamae from Bad Form talk all things books and representation in this Fluff takeover!”
