“The only way you can allow a kid to truly dream is if you expand their idea of what is currently possible. A kid who has nothing, seeing nothing, and is taught nothing... can only hope to get to the next moment successfully. I want more than that for my kids.”

W. Kamau Bell

“Black teachers matter for Black students. I credit my amazing teacher Elizabeth Clarke for truly seeing me in school — and that feeling of being seen and feeling valued is more important now than ever. Representation has always mattered.”

Yvette Nicole Brown

“I felt seen in school when teachers found ways to connect my individuality to my education. This Black History Month, let's help educators make their students feel seen by giving them tools to make their students' creativity a valuable part of their curriculum.”

Amanda Seales

“Seeing a Black girl in a popular book series and getting to play a pivotal and heroic role sparked something in me. It made me think that maybe I could do something like this.”

Nic Stone

“If we can build empathy in [young adults] now by giving them these windows and mirrors into experiences, we have a better chance of having change take place in this country when they’re finally in power.”

Angie Thomas

With special thanks to our partners
