Among us

“As you open up and out to the world, as you grow in awareness and empathy for human beings in nations near and far, you may see more acutely, or perhaps anew, the condition of those in your own backyard. This revelation, no matter how great or small, should not be an end in itself. It should…serve as a catalyst to your becoming an agent of change. It should bring to your remembrance the second part of the slogan from the Women’s Conference in Nairobi: the imperative to ‘act locally.’”

Hi P,

I love your avatar. Librarians rock!

Anywhoo, I’m new to Jacketflap and I am promoting our group Color Online. Would you consider sharing information about us with others? We are currently requesting book reviews. Below is a current post on our blog:

Free Books: Tell Us What You Are Reading?

Color Online wants to know what you're reading. Send us a short review of a book or collection of poetry. Reviews can be as short as 200 words no more than 500. If we use your review, we'll send you a free book! We're looking for reviews on books by women of color. Our target audience is young women between 14-21 or anyone who reads YA and women's literature. If you have questions, write us at [email protected].

Thank you,

LaTonya
