I should not have to prove my ethnicity to anyone. I know who I am.
-- Christina Aguilera
This is a follow-up and conclusion to my 2 previous posts about the #itstimetotalkracism campaign, which you can read HERE and HERE. The organizer, Chrissy from Buzzing with Ms. B, has put together a list of books with anti-racist themes and books that honor diversity that teachers can use to stock their classroom libraries. Some of these books were reviewed in the blog posts written for this campaign.

If you’d like to help your students think more about what it means to be kind and show respect to others, you might like this resource I created. It’s 10 photographs in 8.5" x 11" poster size and each one is overlaid with a quotation; there are 5 quotes about kindness and 5 about respect. There are also 10 questions you can use as writing or discussion prompts. For more info, please click HERE.
