Join us on TTT http://edtechtalk.com/ttt tonight 2.27 at 9PM ET/6PM PT and help us chat a few future projects -- especially around literature -- together on http://youthvoices.net.

For example what if the students at Oakland, California who are reading "If Beale Street Could Talk" and talking about Baldwin's opinion on the N-word http://youthvoices.net/discussion/whos-nigga were talking to the students in Okemos, Michigan who have been dealing so thoughtfully about "Race and Racism in Huck Finn," http://youthvoices.net/discussion/race-and-racism-huck-finn ?

And this is just one example.

Join us at http://edtechtalk.com/ttt at 9PM ET/6PM PT +Chris Sloan, +Dawn Reed, +Johanna Paraiso , +Paul Allison, and +Karen Fasimpaur will be talking about what went well this year (retrospect) on http://youthvoices.net and what we might do differently (prospect) this summer and fall. +Joel Malley, +Crystal Ringer, +Jake Jacobs and YOU (we hope) will be with us as well, helping us to imagine and plan for the future.

In particular we will be thinking about how to connect around texts such as these: http://youthvoices.net/badboy, http://youthvoices.net/night1, http://youthvoices.net/1984, http://youthvoices.net/finn, http://youthvoices.net/gatsby, http://youthvoices.net/blackboy, http://youthvoices.net/mango1, http://youthvoices.net/transitions, http://youthvoices.net/2BR02B, http://youthvoices.net, http://youthvoices.net/littlebrother, and more!

Please plan to join us tonight, Wednesday, May 27 at 9PM ET/6PM PT.
