As teachers, we use books to start conversations, spark ideas, present challenges and brainstorm solutions. We provide this booklist as a resource for educators, parents, community members and policy makers interested in reaching young people on issues of social justice. It is divided into five sections: early learning (pre-K – 3rd grade), elementary reading and chapter books (grades 4-6), young adult literature (grades 7-9), secondary/adult literature, and texts to help teachers create equitable learning environments.
