I, Matthew Henson

There were signs all through town telling eight-year-old Connie where she could and could not go. But when Connie sees four young men take a stand for equal rights at a Woolworth's lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina, she realizes that things may soon change. This event sparks a movement in her town and region. And while Connie is too young to march or give a speech, she helps her brother and sister make signs for Equality Now.

That seems fair, doesn't it?

"A powerful look at the Tulsa Race Massacre, one of the worst incidents of racial violence in our nation's history. The book traces the history of African Americans in Tulsa's Greenwood district-also known as Black Wall Street-and chronicles the devastation that occurred in 1921, when a white mob attacked the prosperous Black community. This picture book sensitivelyintroduces young readers to this tragedy and concludes with a call for a better future."
