A Haul of Books by Black Authors...because I wasn't reading diversely enough :/

In my day to day, I'm a staunch advocate for diversity, equity and inclusion. I recently noticed that my bookshelf was not reflecting this. Soooo I went and bought a bunch of books written by Black authors that really resonated with me. Reading diversely isn't easy, but it is a minimum standard I feel we should ALL strive to achieve. And that's on period. I'm starting my journey here but I know there's a lot more to come. Follow along as we encourage each other to read more diversely and save this video for later for your book shopping!
