Equality Now Project

<p>When all the world was traveled and nothing left to see</p><p>I'd fly back home and rest my soul to sleep</p><p>A now more humble and better me</p><p>I fly and fly still in my dream.</p><p>- Stephanie Vazquez</p><p></p><p></p><p><em>Equality Now Project </em>is a collection of essays poems and art by students of the HSED program from Literacy Services of Wisconsin. In the words of educator Kathrine Yets the goal of this project is to recognize these diverse voices. They are brilliant and they have the power to change the world. In this book Milwaukee-area writers aged 19-60 years old give word to their experiences and lift their voices to speak about racism sexism poverty self-discovery and the need for advocacy. Through the individuality of these authors a diverse community emerges one that is willing and capable of taking hold of their future and pushing toward equality for all.</p>
