8240 pledges
and counting...
It is imperative that children see themselves reflected in the materials they are reading.
We ❤️ all that this pledge stands for! Dogs love unconditionally and we believe people should too!
I’m taking the pledge because hiding history and information from people and children only serves a small group of people and hurts us all in the long run. To avoid the mistakes of the past and to respect each other we must learn through diversity.
