I suspect that one of the most powerful sentences I will here at #alaac23 was just said by Federico Salas-Isnardi "Without literacy, there is no equity."
Watching Tracie Hall speak on digital equity. So much work needs to be done. "1 in 5 Americans are disconnected and unable to participate in digital environments." It's not just about school, there is a link between reading & digital literacy and socio-economic mobility.
Did @NataliaDeJesusM and I stay up until past midnight making a space for BIPOC and Marginalized book readers? Yes, yes we did. See you in The Void! forms.gle/ZXFvy5KKYWyKbJ329 #blackbooktwitter #booktwitter #booktwt #librariantwitter
