A lifelong lover of books, I seek to grow in knowledge and understanding of all cultures and people!
As a diverse family and as advocates for children and social justice awareness, we believe in supporting people of color and promoting literature that depicts the beauty, creativity, and artistry in their writings and publishing’s!
Be yourself. The world will adjust!
I love the mission.
Because as an educator it is my challenge to introduce and give access to my students books that show people of color like themselves! Kids need to see themselves in books!
Representation matters. It’s important to have mirrors and windows when reading to better understand our world. Raising better educated readers is important.
Our library will reflect diversity in all reading material to reach all children in our community.
