A FEW QUOTES FROM OUR CONVERSATION…
“One of the challenges I always had as an educator and even a parent was finding books that had diverse and modern-day role models for my kids. And really I am talking about women.”
“A lot of barriers when it comes to reaching a diverse population. Sometimes we have to expand our mindset of who we’re trying to reach.”
