Hi y'all. It's been a rough week, especially for those of us in the US right now. George Floyd's murder by a police officer in Minneapolis was an atrocity, and I stand with every protestor across my country. Black lives matter. We need legislation against police brutality, support for Black businesses, creators, and voices, and to eradicate white supremacy. I don't have anything in particular to share right now because in my real life I'm working to be a good ally and supporter for the Black Lives Matter movement. There's a lot of information flying around, so I want to take this chance to first share some resources and links on educational readings, places to donate, and also highlight three YA books out today by Black authors.
Please add more organizations in the comments! I'd love to expand this post! And now for the YA content you know me for!! Three amazing YA's by Black authors released today, and I want you to support them! I've included buy links for Bookshop.org (both with and w/o my affiliate link), Barnes & Noble, and libro.fm, but if you have a local indie, especially a bookstore owned by a Black business owner, it'd be great if you'd consider ordering from them instead! Please stay safe and healthy! I love you all--feel free to email/DM on socials if you want to talk!
