What color is human? The answer: every color you can imagine! Step into a world where every shade of skin is celebrated like a beautiful paint palette! In The Colors We Share, award-winning artist Angélica Dass invites young readers on a joyful, thought-provoking journey that challenges how we think about skin color, race, and identity. Angélica Dass, the internationally celebrated Brazilian artist behind the global Humanae Project (with over 4,500 portraits and counting!), whose TED Talk has been viewed over 2 million times. “These ideas are simply too small for a world that contains so many beautiful colors and people.” — Angélica Dass
With vibrant portraits of real people from across the globe, each shown against a background that perfectly matches their skin tone, this book shows us how wonderfully colorful humans really are. It gently questions the small labels we use to describe one another—and opens hearts and minds to the rich diversity we share.
Kids will even learn how to mix paint to create their own unique skin tone, making the experience playful, personal, and empowering. From giggles to big questions, from curiosity to compassion, The Colors We Share sparks conversations that matter—about how we see ourselves, how we see others, and how beautiful our differences and similarities truly are. Whether at home, in classrooms, or libraries, this book is a must-have for curious minds ready to explore humanity’s rainbow.
Open the pages. See the colors. Share the love.
