Book excerpt: Stand up for what you believe in, no matter where you are! Noah and Justin are two similar brothers, but with one visible difference. One weekend at a cousin's birthday party and one comment at the lunch table prompts Justin to implement a change in his life. He jumps into action so that he can knock down and change the social and cultural barriers that he sees happening in his middle school. What better way to generate change than to bring awareness to the problem? Filled with advocacy, activism, and organizing, Differences Matter, Diversity Matters: A Story About My Brother and Me brings awareness to the lack of social and cultural awareness in Justin's middle school. Do you think 11-year-old Justin has what it takes to generate change?
