Boulder Educators Read Aloud Social Justice Stories

Teachers throughout Boulder have recorded their favorite picture books, including those that are considered culturally responsive in some way. We believe that conversations with kids about topics that explicitly include race, gender, equity, and social justice should start early and continue throughout their lives to encourage values that embrace diversity and inclusion. We hope these book recordings will help support such conversations.
