For the month of February, we are doing a readathon of diverse books in honor of African American Heritage Month! The goal is to get as many points as you can, and you can get those points by completing the prompts!
Prompts: (view spoiler)[ -Read a book that features the police brutality African Americans experience. (5 Points) -Read a book featuring protests. (5 Points) -Read a book written by a black author. (5 Points) -Read an #ownvoices book. (5 Points) -Read a book with a black main character. (5 Points) -Read a book from this list: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1... (5 Points)
Books may fill more than one prompt, and prompts can be used as many times as you want for different books. (hide spoiler)]
