I just saw @mychal3ts.bsky.social say that we shouldn’t use our library voices to share our joy of books with people and I AGREE and would like to take it one step further: we shouldn’t use our library voices when advocating against book bans. We should shout against them.

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors. I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.
