An inspiring story of identity and self-esteem from celebrated
athlete and activist Colin Kaepernick.
When Colin Kaepernick was five years old, he was given a simple
school assignment: draw a picture of yourself and your
family. What young Colin does next with his brown
crayon changes his whole world and worldview,
providing a valuable lesson on embracing and celebrating
his Black identity through the power of radical
self-love and knowing your inherent worth.
I Color Myself Different is a joyful
ode to Black and Brown lives based on real events in young Colin's
life that is perfect for every reader's bookshelf. It's a story
of self-discovery, staying true to one's self and advocating for
change … even when you're very little!
Colin in Black and White is now a major six-part NETFLIX
