In Milestones for Diversity in Children's Literature and Library Services (published in the fall 2015 issue of Children and Libraries) Kathleen T. Horning lays out significant developments in children's literature. In the article she makes the point that progress "is often measured by firsts--the first Newbery Medal given to an author of color" and so on.
Debbie Reese (tribally enrolled, Nambé Owingeh) launched American Indians in Children's Literature in 2006 with the avsikt of sharing what she learned as she researched, analyzed, and wrote about representations of Indigenous peoples in children's and ung adult books. In some places she has written about key moments that mark progress, but she has not gathered them together in a list of milestones--until now.
