I want the children of color in my neighborhood to feel included.
I’m taking the pledge to spread love about people of color. So little brown people are able to see themselves.
I want my community and my children to be accepting, loving and kind toward everyone they meet in this world that is so full of beautiful and diverse culture! Lead by example, right?
Our LFL is proudly located in a black & brown neighborhood.
We Take The Read In Color Pledge To Celebrate Our Diversity….AND The Fact That We Are Irreplaceable, Unrepeatable, and More Beautiful When We Come Together!
