I loved talking to this year group of passionate young kiddos on Friday! They blew me away with their knowledge about how to be inclusive and kind. If only we all had the openness to learn of ten year olds, the world would be a better place. https://t.co/he1MMIY5pa— Zoë Jessica (@zoejessicad) July 4, 2023
