I live in a homogeneous command we can benefit from books that celebrate diversity .
We are a diverse family and feel that all should always feel included.
I know what it’s like to grow up and not see yourself or your community reflected in the stories that make typical reading lists. Read in Color is an initiative that speaks to the heart.
Because everyone should be able to find books that relate to them or open them to ways of thinking that they might never been exposed to otherwise.
At the Bulldog Little Free Library, our hope is that each book will open up the reader’s mind to kindness, acceptance, and respect for all.
To share books that reflect our diverse community!
I embrace diversity.
Because it’s important to be understand all cultures and people.
215 bodies of babies and children from the Residential School in Kamloops were found last week. We were not taught (I am 36) this part of history. We need to educate ourselves with diverse materials for every culture race, beliefs and out history.
