PEN America On 
Still reeling from the Literary Activism Summit a few weeks ago. We got to talk banned books, community building through literature, activism, and what the amazing Iris Morales called our contemporary “battle of ideas.” @PENamerica @SchomburgCenter @RaquelWillis_

This #WomensHistoryMonth, PEN staff came together to list books that deeply impacted us, and helped us understand sisterhood, and the importance of lifting each other up through a poststructuralist, hetero-patriarchal world. Happy reading and growing!
