We Are Gems helps readers to critically question microaggressions against Asian Americans through self-love and solidarity with Black and Indigenous-led movements for justice and healing. It is a joyous celebration of Asian Americans and our history.

We believe that learning & living out racial justice starts at home, including on our bookshelves. That is why we wrote and illustratrated We Are Gems (ages 8+). Check out our website for a free Common Core-aligned discussion guide: https://www.justwordsjustdeeds.com/

Industry Reviews

While the target audience of this book is Asian and Asian Americans, it is a valuable read for anyone (adult or child) learning why solidarity across difference is essential to our shared liberation.

I am a White teacher. My students are predominately Latinx. In class, we have been discussing the unique challenges and discrimination faced by our Asian Am neighbors. This book helps students work through honest and difficult questions about the experiences of Asian Americans.

This book is a must for any antiracist classroom library.
