Happy #Juneteenth!! The history books will say the President Joe Biden made Juneteenth a federal holiday, but here is the tea. Opal Lee @therealopallee (born October 7, 1926) is an American retired teacher, counselor, and activist in the movement to make Juneteenth a federally-recognized holiday. She is often described as the "grandmother of Juneteenth". Lee campaigned for decades to make Juneteenth a federal holiday. At the age of 89, she conducted a symbolic walk from Fort Worth to Washington, D.C., leaving in September 2016 and arriving in Washington in January 2017. She hoping to plead the case for a federal holiday directly to President Barack Obama @BarackObama. She promoted a petition for a Juneteenth federal holiday at Change.org; the petition received 1.6 million signatures. She said, "It's going to be a national holiday, I have no doubt about it. My point is let's make it a holiday in my lifetime." In June 2021, at the age of 94, her efforts succeeded as a bill to make Juneteenth a federal holiday was passed by Congress and signed into law by President Joe Biden @JoeBiden. As she sat in the front row, she received a standing ovation and Biden got down on one knee to greet her.

#monthlyroundup 9 books for November. I was 2/6 on my #TBRGoals I finished Imaginary Friend which was a giant let down. Unfortunately the other #BookOfTheMonth I finished was fierce kingdom and that was also a disappointment. . Then I read the 800 page behemoth that was #HouseOfEarthandBlood for #readalong with the #crescentcityslackers hosted by @thefoxyreader & @andiewritesandreads This book gave me feelings but I'll dedicate a separate post to it because said feelings are strong and varied. . Then I went on a #romancenovel kick. 4 quick #romcom books that were all satisfying. . Finished #DeathlessDivide which I started in August but kept putting down for other things. I was upset about the jump in time in the book. . And lastly, finished Final Girls which has been on my TBR for a while and is on my 2020 reading goals. #romance #YANovel #UrbanFantasy #horror #thriller #nerdymama #nerdybooks #booknerd #bibliophile #blackgirlsread #LatinxReader #LatinxAuthors #BlackAuthors #bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CIQRZg6gOUG/?igshid=1oxvo9ftq1gum

You know that expression “be careful what you wish for”? Sometimes wishes come true in scary ways. Like you get all the other books you asked for for February. All. Of. Them.

Check out the link below to see picks from @TheCollectiveOakland, @BlackPearlBooks, and @Esowonbooks published by @Librofm. Our favorite pick is #MamaDay by #GloriaNaylor. If we were to make recommendations, it would be #TheMemoryLibrarian by @JanelleMonae and #DreadNation / #DeathlessDivide by Justina Ireland. Both titles explore what it means to be free from an intersectional lens of gender, sexuality, race, and class. Which book would you recommend and why? https://blog.libro.fm/black-owned-bookstores-juneteenth-picks/ 📍 @commabookstore 📸 @kadyyellow #juneteenth #juneteenth2022 #happyjuneteenth #happyjuneteenth2022 #celebrateblackculture #melaninrich #blackqueens #myblackisbeautiful #blackbeauty #melaningram #melanated #blackpower #melaninqueen #melaninking #blackexcellence #blackauthors #blackculture #blackhistory #unapologeticallyblack #blackandproud #sistahscifi #sistahscifibookstore https://www.instagram.com/p/CfClaOZvcyK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Watched all of @lastofushbotv, waiting for @amcthewalkingdead Michonne spinoff, watched @znationcrew

three times (okay, maybe that last one was just us!).

Then we know you love apocalyptic, zombie lore and HIGHLY recommend Dread Nation and Deathless Divide by @justina.ireland!!! And we have hardcover editions in stock signed by Justina Ireland!! Link in bio: @sistahscifi | www.sistahscifi.com | https://sistahscifi.com/products/dread-nation-hardcover

Better yet, check the duology out from your local #library!!

Reposted @caits.little.grey.cells

If you are looking for strong Black female characters navigating an apocalyptic speculative fiction -esqe Civil War Era landscape... the Dread Nation Duology is for you! I read these two after purchasing from @sistahscifi (thanks for the rec!). Bahni Turpin narrates, so I see an audio re-read in my future.

Ireland weaves race, humanity, survival, sexuality, equality, and freedom into the story to explore this dystopian world in a powerful way.

⭐️Highly recommend!!⭐️
