About this ebook
Alese Morrison is a fifth grade student at George Washington Carver Elementary School in Newark, New Jersey. Alese and her fellow classmates were tasked with a very tedious homework assignment to get their minds going. Some of them were up for the challenge, while the others relished in procrastinating.
This homework assignment would open up discussions for debate, create open dialogue, and show various perspectives on life. Diversify Us allows youth to think and talk about diversity in various environments. It allows them to look at it at school, home, work, and in the communities where they reside. Diversity is a very big topic and is sometimes narrowed down to one of two things. The objective of this book is to broaden the views of diversity and what it means to other people.
This book will give youth the opportunity to look at diversity in genders, race, socioeconomic status, states, and much more.
