We Rise, We Resist, We Raise Our Voices by Cheryl Willis Hudson, Wade Hudson

50 stories to inspire, to motivate, to offer love and hope in our current tumultuous environment and, most importantly, to encourage young activists to find ways of making a difference (it could just start in the home, offering to help clear the dinner table for example). The stories are a variety of poetry and prose, and the illustrations are so fantastic. My hope is for young readers to come across books such as this, and at least become aware of the world at large. And perhaps, if I haven’t yet run out of wishes, start to think about advocating for human rights and just societies. -Sara Z
