MCBD has been an ally to an author like me. Long before everyone was talking about the need to be an ally. Not all of us protest or speak up in the same way. When looking for a way to help- a way to make a real systemic difference- consider joining  Multicultural Children’s Book Day’s initiative to shine the spotlight on deserving authors and publishers so their books can ultimately get into the hands of readers and on school and home bookshelves. Multicultural Children’s Book Day is in it for the long haul because they know they need to make strategic and lasting changes to the children’s book industry.”~Author Deedee Cummings
