Testimonials

What Our Community Is Saying

"Your books are really inspiring. They show how Black people are great and how they make a change in the world like Martin Luther King. It was really cool to learn, and your words and the way you format it was really good for kids, so I suggest more kids should read it."

Gavyn Edmondson Age 10, Student

"Ashley has taken history and made it fun and engaging for students of all ages. Students develop self-esteem and even more confidence as they learn about contributions from people who look like them. It's thrilling to see students enjoy learning about their history."

Theresa Price Founder, National College Resource Foundation (Black College Expo)
Why It Matters

Representation Matters

When students learn about innovators, entrepreneurs, scientists, leaders, and changemakers who look like them, they begin to see new possibilities for themselves.

Every lesson we bring into the classroom is an investment in a child's belief in what they can become.
