I am on a very active corner and am an active antiracist and ally. I want to use my LFL to make a difference and encourage/inspireothers!
I want to have a little library on my street … as an avid reader, I want to share my own collectionof books and help others start their own home library.
As a family of color and a minority it is my responsibility to share authors and stories that represent us.
I started my LFL in a Starbucks. This Starbucks is situated in a neighborhood with many schools. I would like the children who visit our library to have access to diverse literature.
All children should see themselves represented in books.
