Description
Summary:"Who are the "we" of "we the people"? This collaboration between award-winning artist Duncan Tonatiuh and author Howard W. Reeves celebrates inclusion, exploring what the preamble to our United States constitution leaves unsaidWe the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union . . . Who are the "we the people" mentioned in the preamble to the U.S. Constitution? They are our neighbors next door, down the street, or across the country. They live in different places, worship in different ways, come from different backgrounds and histories. They struggle, achieve, and overcome. They are you, and me, and us. Because, as we strive to create a more perfect union, "we" should mean "all." "-- Provided by publisher.
