Oh wait, I did suggest the running shoe patch. Shayla is a girl caught up in such typical things: friendship, early crushes, ice cream :) and the we wanted that reflected, but she also is struggling to learn to jump the hurdles for track and is becoming aware of race mattering in a way she wasn't prepared for. So hopefully the patches bring together the idea of the simple and difficult problems kids can face and how all of it matters. (less)

I've been asked a few times about a sequel--mainly I think because people want more Bernard--and never say never, but currently I'm not working on a sequel but on another MG contemporary that stars a character SO unlike Shayla. It's been fun focusing on a totally different aspect of middle school.(less)

“Not everything that is faced can be changed,’” Daddy says, and then Hana cuts in and says, “‘But nothing can be changed until it is faced.”
Lisa Moore Ramee, A Good Kind of Trouble

“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love. . . .”
Lisa Moore Ramée, A Good Kind of Trouble

“Okay, like if you eat unhealthy food a long time, you’re going to be unhealthy, right? Well, for too long people have been fed a diet about Black folks. About folks with brown skin. Making them think we’re scary. And that’s how the police have been trained to act. It’s going to take a long time to change people’s minds.”
Lisa Moore Ramée, A Good Kind of Trouble
