ABOUT THIS EPISODE
"When you look at the, the children's literature market today, you see large groups of children that are excluded. When you're not able to see yourself in a children's book, it has major consequences on your view of your own value, your self esteem, your place in society."

Keith Daniel, Resilient Ventures
Robbie Hardy, xElle Ventures
Donald Thompson, Angel Investor and CEO of Walk West
Tim McLoughlin, Cofounders Capital
Startup Stage is a production of Earfluence and hosted by Sharon Delaney McCloud.
