My name is Renee Liberman and I am a senior in the College of Education. My major is special education - learning disabilities, and my teaching major is language arts.
I am very interested in diverse literature. I enjoy reading about people who are different than me and their experiences and cultures. I am from West Bloomfield, MI. West Bloomfield is known as a fairly diverse community, but there seem to be lines drawn between the different ethnicities, races, religions, cultures, and disabilities. This is not apparent all the time, but it is quite obvious in the school system. I enjoy being from a diverse community and tried to put myself "out there" more than the average person.
I think that this class will be very beneficial for me and others in many ways. I am looking forward to the fact that my diverse library will grow greatly and that as a teacher I will be able to share it with others. I hope that the diverse literature we read (and share with others) will inform us in ways that could not be done without literature.
