Nia Cultural Center is having African American Read-In for the whole month of February! Join us for a live virtual reading and Q&A spotlighting Black authors of Galveston county and promoting literacy in our community.
This week author Sharon Batiste Gillins will join us, followed by a Q&A.
The National African American Read-In (AARI) is a groundbreaking effort to encourage communities to read together, centering African American books and authors. It was established in 1990 by the Black Caucus of the National Council of Teachers of English to make literacy a significant part of Black History Month. This initiative has reached more than 6 million participants around the world.
