Indie Chicago-Based Children’s Book Uses Imagination to Bridge the Gap Between Law Enforcement and the Black Community
Healing through storytelling is a pathway to building trust between police and the Black community across America.
The Sparkle Riot Crew and the Kid From Star Quad 9 is a remarkably creative chapter book filled with the imagination, adventure, fun, and exploration that TEPHRA MIRIAM infuses in all of her books. This fresh, original, and high-impact literary work is redefining publishing and engages diverse audiences through TEPHRA’s fresh perspective. This story reminds readers how important it is to love children for who they are and brings their voices to the forefront.
The positive portrayal of Black Police Detectives provides a diverse view of law enforcement that can serve as a conversation starter and build bridges to healing in Black communities that have suffered from police brutality. The book also teaches lessons in justice, and explores the fears that can blind us when we encounter those who we deem as different.
