Little Libby Wants To Get A Job

Little Libby Wants To Get A Job follows a young girl who watches her mother work hard washing clothes and cleaning homes. When Libby sees white women working downtown, she wonders why her mother cannot do the same. Learning that Black women are only allowed certain jobs, Libby dreams of a future where she can choose any work she loves. Years later, Libby-now Elizabeth Kimberlin-turns that dream into reality through a successful career in federal service and by mentoring other young women to access new opportunities. Her story shows how dignity, determination, and dreaming big can open doors for generations.
