About The Book
Makena has a passion for fashion and clothes are a way for her to connect with others — especially when she shares her OOTD (outfit of the day). But some people don't see her for who she is. They only see her as a Black girl and make unfair assumptions. When she experiences a racist incident in her own neighborhood, she decides to use fashion to speak up about injustice. She teams up with her new friends, Evette and Maritza to raise awareness about racism and other issue they care about. Can she encourage her community to look beyond color? The book includes ideas for standing up to racism, a profile of the founder of a fashion organization that supports designers of color, and reader questions to spark conversation.
