Would it surprise you to learn that every American 12-year-old I’ve asked, does not know what the term “apartheid” means?

 

As I made author presentations to middle-schoolers about my first historical fiction book, I questioned the students about their familiarity with apartheid.  Their innocent ignorance of the topic of apartheid inspired me to write my second book.

 

“The Magic March” follows the adventures of all-American twins, Izzy and Joe, who time-travel to South Africa in 1976.  Joe has waited until the last minute to write a school report on Nelson Mandela, and plans to interview him in person.  The twins have many adventures with wild animals before finding their way to Johannesburg to meet Mandela.  An older boy from Soweto befriends them as they learn about life under apartheid.  They take part in the youth protest of June 16, 1976.

@Troy, yes, it's a publication. It's linked to http://taniscawilson.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Knowing-Why-Education-Matters.pdf

 

My apologies for the delayed response.
