A piercing picture book about racial injustice from a child’s perspective from Taye Diggs and Shane Evans.
"Daddy?"
"Yes, my sweet boy."
"Why are those people shouting?"
"Our people are shouting because we need to be heard. We need to be heard."
Why? is a question asked by children daily, and in this striking and timely story, it begins a straightforward and challenging conversation between children of color and the adults in their lives.
Why are the buildings burning? Why are people marching? Why are they crying? Taye Diggs has written a beautiful, powerful, and poignant story that peers through the eyes of a child as they struggle to understand why these events are happening.
Why? distills the conversations many children and adults are having about race, injustice, and anger in communities throughout our country, and gives them context that young readers can connect with. Heartfelt and deeply piercing illustrations from Shane W. Evans will leave a lasting impact on readers of any age. One that will hopefully lead to more conversations, change, and peace within our own communities and the world.

Title: Not an in-depth discussion, possibly bcuz of the age of the target audience.
Review: This book needs more discussion btwn the family & the young ones this topic is being shared with. With illustrations & wording, there are approximately 30 total pagesâ6 pages with only one word & 8 nicely illustrated pages with no words. Definitely, a very quick read, which will undoubtedly provoke more conversation (in reality) after the book has been shared.

Title: totally inappropriate book
Review: Promotes violence and destruction of property which is ok if there is social injustice against blacks. The book was read at a table of 10 older men and all of us were flabbergasted at the content of the book. Itâs ok to burn buildings for social injustice and if thatâs ok then what might be the next step. i sire wouldnât my grandsons reading this book. Itâs horrifying to read at any age or race.
