Essence: You gotta have faith: a children’s book author delves into her girlhood in a masterful memoir is a nearly poetic article on Faith Ringgold. This is an article that demonstrates the impact one children’s book author can have.
Here is my favorite line:
“Ringgold says that although she seeks to explain some of the disturbing elements of slavery and prejudice through some of her children’s books–a dozen in all–these stories have always been more about the importance of instilling in our youth the belief that they can change the world.”
