I Can See...Me

A Brown Girl's Guide To Explore S.T.E.A.M.Careers from A to Z

Beschreibung

"I Can See...Me" is more than just a guide-it's a powerful tool for parents and educators to spark curiosity and build confidence in young girls. Studies show that Black and Brown women are significantly underrepresented in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (S.T.E.A.M.) fields. For example, Black women make up only about 2% of the technology workforce, and women of color account for less than 10% of the entire S.T.E.M. workforce. This gap highlights the need to encourage young girls to recognize their potential in these fields. Diversity is essential for driving innovation, creativity, and progress in every industry. By reading this book, young girls will see that they, too, belong in these spaces and that their unique talents and perspectives are essential to making the world better. Parents play a crucial role in introducing their children to career possibilities early, and this book is the perfect starting point. This book is not just an introduction to careers-it's a confidence booster for Black and Brown girls. In a world where they often don't see themselves represented in S.T.E.A.M. careers, "I Can See...Me" shows them that they are not only capable but that their talents and ideas are needed. When children see role models who look like them, they are more likely to dream big and believe in their ability to succeed. This book will inspire them to explore new possibilities, discover their passions, and envision a future full of endless opportunities.
