"We encourage all of those who are concerned about social justice and systemic racism in every area of American life to join this initiative." @JustUsBooks
Also, it& #39;s a great moment to note all the incredible Black authors and illustrators that so many folx know nothing about but who have been producing excellence for many years. So, get to know...(and purchase their books from Black-owned bookstores like @FrugalBookstore)
