In the muggy heat of the summer of 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered the now famous “I Have a Dream” speech. He spoke of his dream for a future where children of all races could walk together and ”not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character”. This speech, this man, and this movement are all iconic pieces of American History.
It is within this context that it becomes even more interesting to note that it was in the year preceeding that, 1962, that the first full-color children’s book featuring a Black child as the main character was released.
