@teachwithT We need to get some trips planned then and take me WITH YOU!

Sometimes (not sometimes, let’s get real… often) I walk to my driveway, get in my car, roll down the windows, just listen and read. It’s so calming.

Where are your go to reading spaces?

@SixesAce There’s something about the smell of a library. Lol…like in real life. I totally agree here.

What’s the “why” behind Black Is LIT? Black Is LIT was created to drive Black stories back towards center stage. We asked HD Hunter for his “why”.

Why is it important to read Black stories? His response is everything!

Be sure to join us 6/27 for a discussion with the author.

@LovehealthB Black is LIT is a book club the features black books. Each month a host picks a book, gives us short video teasers then we come together at the end of the month to chop it up! It’s such a great time. Often it becomes a time for healing (inadvertently).

We didn’t ask for a Juneteenth to be observed as a national holiday, we wanted an end to police violence.
