Research shows that when Black children see themselves represented positively in their media, it fortifies their self-esteem and helps protect them from the impact of racism.

That’s why author, Veronica N. Chapman created a product that provides reel representation, pairing a love for the nostalgic View-Master with the empowering art of Black illustrators.
