In her book, Rogers delivers a powerful chapter "reclaiming the Story of Dr.King", highlighting a pivotal moment that sparked deeper conversations within their program about compassion, injustice, and the importance of recognizing inequity across all ages and levels of understanding.

I was incredibly saddened to learn of the passing of Diane Kashin on January 1, 2024. Diane was a pillar of the early childhood education community and a dear friend to so many. I had the honor and the pleasure of working with Diane to edit her final book in 2022 and 2023 and in doing so I learned so much about myself and my own friendships. It is a book that I will long carry in my heart.

We at Redleaf Press extend our deepest condolences to Diane’s family, friends, and colleagues everywhere. Diane left the world a better place and she will be dearly missed by everyone whose life she touched.

Diane’s final blog post, in which she mused about her legacy, is here: https://tecribresearch.blog/2023/12/08/legacy-in-early-children-education-embracing-the-season-of-giving-back/
