WHEN WE SAY BLACK LIVES MATTERS

 Little one, when we say Black Lives Matter,

we're saying black people are wonderful-strong.

That we deserve to be treated with basic respect,

and that history's done us wrong.

From birth to the end of school, in joy and in sorrow, on the trumpet and the djembe, at home and in the community, a black child's parents remind him why Black Lives Matter.

A gorgeous and essential picture book for children of all ages from bestselling and award-winning author Maxine Beneba Clarke.
