Just Like Me.

Book Initiative

Just Like Me is a book initiative dedicated to promoting representation and affirmation through children's literature. Recognizing the transformative impact of seeing oneself reflected in stories, the initiative focuses on carefully selecting books featuring Black representation and characters. Authored by Black writers, these books serve as powerful tools for validating children's experiences and empowering them to embrace their unique identities with confidence and resilience.

By providing these books at no cost to children and families, the initiative aims to foster positive self-perception, affirm cultural identity, and encourage self-love. Through strong cultural connections and the building of confidence, the Just Like Me Book Initiative seeks to empower children to navigate the world with a sense of pride and belonging.
