Research has found that 70 percent of all people feel like impostors at one time or another, especially people of color. This syndrome is mostly prevalent in communities of color -- starting with our children. If they don't see themselves being represented how can they feel they belong? A few years ago, upon understanding my feelings and fears of self-doubt, I decided to push away those fears and start a business to contribute to representation of people of color in children's books!
