One voice cannot speak for all voices. By diversifying our books, we give representation to people from different backgrounds to voice their struggles and their story. Representation in media signifies social acceptance and significance. The absence of people of color in the media has often led to stereotypes and social annihilation in society. In worst cases, we can see it lead to actual death. One can observe this through the various police shootings in society. Media is a powerful tool for socializing someone into society. If one race is shown as a criminal, or as the villain, that is what that person will grow up to learn. While they may not express it explicitly, it will be expressed implicitly. The media sometimes acts as the unconscious mind of society. Who is being represented in the media matters, because it establishes the norms of those in society. It says who the leaders are, and who the criminals are. As certain races are stripped of their complexities, they lose their human qualities. They becoming nothing more than a caricature. Diverse books allow for people of color to become human again. People will no longer see white as the default race in books and media, for people of color to break the binds placed on them by society. Children will finally be able to see there are people like them. Children will also be able to see, they are not just a caricature. They will be to see that they are complex humans, who can be anything they want to be.
