I believe in what it stands for.
Through diverse reading we gain empathy and understanding of others.
I have always encouraged inclusivity and respect & acceptance of others with my children and now grandchildren.
so our children can learn how to love everyone!
To share books that represent our diverse community!
Immersing oneself in the cultures of others through reading can help rid ignorance. Reading in color can instead, plant & create a better understanding and perspective of a much bigger colorful world around us. May reading in color encourage you to make colorful friends.
Every story deserves to be told
I believe that all individuals should see themselves represented in the books they access!
Representation matters. Read in Color leads the way in making sure that diverse voices are seen and heard in the pages of books. One world!
