Aprende más sobre estas leyes discriminatorias que han moldeado el pasado y el presente de Estados Unidos. Even after the institution of slavery became illegal, the legacy of slavery continued through injustices created by the Jim Crow laws.

Inspired by a belief that knowledge is power, Read Woke Books seek to amplify the voices of people of the global majority (people who are of African, Arab, Asian, and Latin American descent and identify as not white), provide information about groups that have been disenfranchised, share perspectives of people who have been underrepresented or oppressed, challenge social norms and disrupt the status quo, and encourage readers to take action in their community.

      Gr 4-8-This six-part series explores various historical and social aspects of slavery, abolition, and resistance, while also inspiring readers to take action in their own communities. Curated by Woke Librarian Cicely Lewis, these books confront bias by centering the experiences of non-white groups through personal accounts of historically oppressed communities. QR codes lead readers to supplementary learning materials, including recorded accounts of formerly enslaved people. This series' strength is its unfiltered and critical representation of a variety of primary and secondary sources for readers to evaluate and explore both inside and outside the context of topics covered in each book. The intersectionality and complexity of these historical topics are presented in a way that maximizes creative thinking while also inspiring action and positive change. VERDICT An essential purchase for any library.
