I have been waiting for a book like Fighting for Change to add to my diverse classroom library. Fighting for Change, reminds the reader to listen to their parents, try their best, and work to change things they know are wrong. Fighting for Change is well-written and thoughtful. It will be an example to students that no matter their race, color, gender, or creed, they too, can do what they set their minds to....whether it is writing a book or running for President of the United States.
During these dark times when increasing reports of AAPI Hate are escalating, Fighting for Change: Andrew Yang’s Path Forward provides a bright light. Yang has taken the Asian-American community forward by stepping front and center in the fight against exclusion. He continues to work on ways to create a better America, striving to achieve greater equality. While this is a book for young readers, it reaches across all age groups, telling the story of one man’s determination to make a difference in achieving a stronger, more diverse United States. It's a welcome addition to any library.
