Books create belonging. They help us see each other, and understand one another. That's why every young person should have the chance to study books reflecting the racial diversity of UK society. This is how we want to contribute to that vision. #LitInColour (1/4)
We’re excited to join forces with @RunnymedeTrust to commission major new research, as well as the Black Writers’ Guild, @TeachFirst, @Literacy_Trust and partner schools. Change happens when we work together. We add our voices to a movement built over years, by many. (2/4)
Over the next few years our #LitInColour programme will support brilliant teachers making change on the ground to develop an inclusive #EnglishLit #curriculum and increase student access to books by writers of colour. https://penguin.co.uk/litincolour (3/4)
As publishers, we also have more to do to nurture and publish more writers of colours for readers of all ages. You can read more about our commitments and action plan here. https://www.penguin.co.uk/company/creative-responsibility/Inclusion.html (4/4)
