    OF/BY/FOR ALL: An interesting look at diversity and representation

    February 26, 2020 /

    Recently, I watched a fascinating talk, given by the director of a museum in California, which talked about her experience bringing representation and inclusivity to her museum space, and the huge benefits that this effort brought to the organization and the surrounding community.

    Whoops, I’ve fallen off over the last few months, and for that I apologize! This year, one of my goals is to take the time to make this blog a little more regular, and to find a few ways to amplify even more voices. I wanted to update you all a little on my reading/story goals for 2020, and keep an eye out for some award updates (I’ve missed quite a few!) and book posts coming in the next few weeks Reading Goals: Every year, I participate in the Goodreads book challenge and in another challenge called 52 Books Around The Year that has a group on Goodreads.
