I went to Barnes and Noble, in an attempt to find books or posters of successful people of color. I can home empty handed. I went on Amazon.com with the same intention. I had the same result. By purchasing a color printer to print posters showcasing successful people of color in each content area, we are showing students every day that they too can be a historian, or a scientist; their skin color is not an obstacle but an asset. Help up get this printer. The posters are made and ready to print. Let's show students that people who look like them have gone above and beyond in their respective fields, and they can be just as successful too.
