Pub Day!
Mae We Be Free books are out in the world now. Thank you all for supporting this project! All of my big dreams have stemmed from raising Black children. From Sankofa Learning Center to these early readers, they are physical manifestations of the love I have for my sons. I wish my children got to experience these books when they were first starting to read AND I am so glad that others can benefit from Mae We Be Free Early Readers. Stay tuned for a little local teach-in soon!
