What are you reading to uplift women of color during Women's History Month? 👀 

Let me back up Women's History Month is an annual initiative to celebrate contributions women have made throughout history. Much like other awareness months, this intentional pause is to recognize where we are and magnify where we could/should be. As we all know women continue to be marginalized and Black women/women of color are further disenfranchised for a myriad of reasons. Let's be clear, WOMEN are awesome and continue to find ways to exist, survive, and thrive under awful circumstances. But should we have to...so what can YOU do? 

SUPPORT WOMXN 

And when I say women I mean anyone who identifies as a woman. If your politics excludes transwomen this post is not for you. 😤


I'm also happy to share Mocha Girls Read community is hosting a year-long initiative to engage readers to support and read works written/produced by Black people. I'm partnering with them along with Madelinewblogs in March for HERstory giveaway.
