“It is essential that all people have the opportunity to see themselves represented with dignity and humanity in the books that we share. This promotes the growth of wellbeing, understanding, and acceptance in our world.”

I wish for everyone to enjoy reading books and find books that inspire us to build community.
Increase opportunities of interest in reading
Our future depends on libraries, reading and daydreaming.
Kids should read books about kids who look like them and white kids should read books that show kids who don’t look like them!
All stories deserve to be told, all voices deserve amplification! Our little library was erected as a radical act of kindness for our local community. We are committed to antiracism and empowering marginalized communities.
to enrich my life and the lives of others
As a queer black woman I know how hard it can be finding representation in books and I love that there is such a big push for inclusion.
