We Are Gems helps readers to critically question microaggressions against Asian Americans through self-love and solidarity with Black and Indigenous-led movements for justice and healing. It is a joyous celebration of Asian Americans and our history.

We believe that learning & living out racial justice starts at home, including on our bookshelves. That is why we wrote and illustratrated 
We Are Gems (ages 8+). Check out our website for a free Common Core-aligned discussion guide & additional formats of the book: https://www.justwordsjustdeeds.com/

Ko Kim, author
A former classroom teacher and reading coach, Ko cherishes that moment when a book “clicks” for a young reader.

Christine Yoon, illustrator
As both an artist and a physician, Christine creates illustrations and paintings to heal herself and others.

Andrew Hem, illustrator
Andrew first developed his artistry in Los Angeles through street art. His collections are now enjoyed around the globe.
