About Represented Reading

Meet our founder, a dedicated student at the University of Richmond with a passionate mission: to make school an inclusive environment for every child through literature. Fueled by the belief that everyone deserves to see themselves reflected in media, she passionately advocates for the inclusion of diverse narratives. Understanding the power of storytelling in preserving history, she is committed to expanding the portrayal of minoritized stories in children’s books. Join us on this journey as we strive for a more inclusive and enriching classroom under her inspiring leadership.
