"It was the unicorn all right, and it was dead. Harry had never seen anything so beautiful and sad.” To me, this sight is at the crux of the discourse about children's literature and contested content. This image, the purity and defenselessness of children's innocence, is what's being invoked by all sides." - Ep. 1.15 For full show notes, transcripts, ways to contact the hosts or support the show, and more, visit hpafter2020.com.
