Happy Black History Month!
This week, Your Favorite Librarian reviews authorship and examines who truly contributes to the world of Black Literature. Join the librarian, as she discusses the topic fairly divided into four portions:

Who Contributes to the Black Experience?

Allyship and Holding Space...properly
Who provides creditability?
