I&#8217;m talking about editors, marketers bookshop owners, librarians academics, teachers and teachers from every level.\u00a0It&#8217;s a very supportive and loving community.\u00a0And We need Diverse Books is a part of this.\u00a0We&#8217;ve helped a lot of creators beginning with our first grantee,\u00a0Angie Thomas\u00a0and moving on up to the most current mentor,\u00a0Amina Luqman-Dawson\u00a0who won the Newbery (for her book,\u00a0Freewater].\u00a0I&#8217;m extremely proud of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, at the moment all of effort is at risk because of the increasing book bans targeting LGBTQ+ and BIPOC books.&nbsp;This is an attempt at continuing to attempt to keep the voices of marginalized groups out of the narrative of the majority, on denying us a voice by denying our voices.&nbsp;If you do not have a voice it&#8217;s not yours to have.&nbsp;It&#8217;s all about bigotry and prejudice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two issues at play.&nbsp;One There are people who say, &#8220;Oh, that&#8217;s terrible, but that&#8217;s not what&#8217;s happening around me.&#8221; However, it&#8217;s happening all over the world!&nbsp;Local politics are now an issue and we must look around.&nbsp;The second issue is the misconception that prohibiting books can be an effective way to increase publicity.&nbsp;However, authors who are marginalized and banned from publishing books do not receive publicity or even placement money, and this can hurt book sales.&nbsp;Publishing is a business, therefore when books written by authors who are marginalized don&#8217;t sell, they cease to receive contracts.&nbsp;It is imperative to mobilize people right now, before the harm can be irreparably damaged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_person_do_wish_is_reading_this_book_If_so_why\"><\/span><strong>Which person do wish is reading this book?
