    Description of The March for Hope

    In this uplifting picture book, a young Black girl’s identities converge at the Women’s March, helping her find power in her voice and her community.

    Mama and I are on our way to the Women’s March. I wish we were going somewhere else. Some place fun.

    Overwhelmed by the magnitude of the protest, Hope isn’t sure how she fits into the movement or how her voice matters—especially when her teacher’s discrimination made her feel invisible. But everything changes when she and Mama join a group of Black women protesters. Surrounded by strength and solidarity, Hope sees herself in them and realizes that even one voice, no matter how small, can spark powerful change.

    The March for Hope is a vibrant and inspiring picture book featuring propulsive writing and full-color, accessible illustrations. It’s an electrifying call to action and a moving reminder of our collective and individual power.
