I live in a multi cultural neighborhood
My favorite books and authors have always championed diversity. I have lived in five states and three countries. I believe that building empathy, building bridges is what a brighter future looks like. I read in color and I will share in color!
Books strengthen imagination and creative muscles.
We believe in being an inclusive community!
Celebrating diversity in my community!
I pledge to read in color to dispel negative stereotypes and increase empathy by understanding other cultures!
