We need to read stories featuring both our own lived experiences as well as the experiences of people not like us. It’s also important to see not only the struggle that disadvantaged communities face, but the joy in their lives as well. These struggles and joys ought to be shared.
Representation and inclusion matter. We look to be a part of the solution and helping all know their worth from a any age.
We are one human race, all equal.
