Look at the beautiful smile of this 19-year-old human being. She should have been protected.
Oluwatoyin Salau was an activist fighting for black lives. I am wide awake with anger. Do not be silent. Fight for her, fight for black women. RIP Toyin 💔

A mom came into the library with her kids in a stroller.
As they strolled into the children’s section, her little girl started waving her arms in the air in excitement, singing, “Hello, library! Hello, books! I told you I’d be back!”

Black people weren’t always allowed to read. It was prohibited. Teaching us to read & write was forbidden. Literacy did not include us.
It’s why I’m so proud to be a Black librarian! To see Black people reading, getting library cards! Proud to see Black authors & illustrators ✨
Never forget once upon a time the very act of reading was illegal in this country and could get you jailed, lynched, or maimed.
