EDA96935-0F62-4EBC-805E-9C18615E1E14If you’re free Wednesday morning, join us for a virtual event at Manchester Museum. “The Colored Girl’s Quest: Finding Mirrors in Museums” will be live-streamed on Facebook and on YouTube. I’ll be talking about MILO’S MUSEUM, how it was inspired by The Colored Girls Museum in Philadelphia, and how self-publishing by Black creators is an act of resistance in a White supremacist society.

I’m grateful for the invitation from author/scholar Breanna McDaniel and her organization, REIYL (Researchers Exploring Inclusive Youth Literature), a collective of students, early career, and established researchers who facilitate knowledge exchange on issues of inclusion, equity, and justice in youth literature and media.
