To insure that children understand and support diversity by reading books on diversity from my Little Free Library.
To continue my lifelong commitment to diversity
As a middle school teacher and Project LIT Community chapter leader, reading and sharing diverse books has become the highlight of my career. Thanks for this opportunity!
It is incredibly important that we start listening to diverse voices and normalize and humanize the non-white voice.
I believe books should be mirrors and windows!
Diverse books are near and dear to my heart. I believe diverse books have the power to unite the community.
I love access to free books from neighbors through Little Free Library and am excited to make important resources on social and environmental literature more available. Thank you for launching the Read in Color initiative!
