The following children’s books are recommendations to add to your classroom library or program’s lending library. These books can be used to explore different races, ethnicities, cultures, and identities. They can also be used to examine the tensions that exist between communities, including some communities of color and law enforcement. While each book lists a suggested age group, you should always review books before sharing with children, youth, and families. You can also use the following websites to check your current book collection to ensure the messages are supportive and culturally responsive: https://diversebookfinder.org/ | https://diversebooks.org/ | https://www.ala.org/ May We Have Enough to Share Cradle Me Families Can Plenty of Hugs Alma and How She Got Her Name Powwow Day What is a Refugee Sweetest Kulu We Are Grateful: Otsaliheliga My Two Cool Moms I Am Golden Your Name Is a Song You Matter We Move Together Just Ask!
