Social Justice #DiverseKidLit
Welcome to #DiverseKidLit! Please join us in sharing your diverse children’s book links and resources, as well as visiting other links to find great suggestions and recommendations.
What Is #DiverseKidLit?
Diverse Children’s Books is a book-sharing meme designed to promote the reading and writing of children’s books that feature diverse characters. This community embraces all kinds of diversity including (and certainly not limited to) diverse, inclusive, multicultural, and global books for children of all backgrounds.
We encourage everyone who shares to support this blogging community by visiting and leaving comments for at least three others. Please also consider following the hosts on at least one of their social media outlets. Spread the word using #diversekidlit and/or adding our button to your site and your diverse posts.
We hope this community serves as a resource for parents, teachers, librarians, publishers, and authors! Our next linkup will be Saturday, October 6th and the first Saturday of each month.
Social Justice Resources
Sometimes good people, people you love, aren’t always right. The same is true for classic children’s books. If you are looking a framework to have critical and courageous conversations about racism in classic children’s books, read on for How to Talk About Racism in Classic Children’s Books.
