K-12 Book List: Government of the People - Americans Opening Doors to Inclusion
By Finding My Way Books
Diversity, equity, and inclusion are values America is building. Throughout our country's history, we have had those people who were first to take on a role. Because of them, doors have opened for others. This list celebrates some of them and begins with a new president who is making inclusion a focus of his administration. Joe Biden states that he believes his cabinet should look like America.
Finding My Way Books supports the inclusion of all people, especially those with disabilities.
