Description

"Who Am I? I Am..." is the 10th coloring book in The Creative Representation Empire coloring book series. The purpose of this coloring book is to provide definitions and words to help individuals identify themselves starting from an understanding of ethnic backgrounds, and pronouns, to sexual orientation, and gender identity. It is our hope by empowering individuals with the verbiage to self-identify we create spaces for people's voices to be heard. This book is also being published on the 10-year anniversary of the author Winston coming out of the closet, which she did at 13. She notes that this book was a resource that she wished she had to find community with other Black and Brown LGBTQ+ community members.

The Creative Representation Empire, TCRE, is a line of coloring books and other creative tools used to highlight, educate, and represent various cultures and identities. TCRE directly reflects the children that will color the books through curated photographs of real people to emphasize to children of color that they are not alone in life, their identity struggles, or their dreams. TCRE is a continuously growing catalog of books and tools representing different cultures, lifestyles, and ethnicities.
