Start reading. There is a reason enslaved Black Americans were forbidden to read. Literacy creates awareness. Awareness creates critical thinking. Critical thinking creates power. They understood that once people can read for themselves, they can question systems, organize, educate others, and imagine a different future. Reading has always been deeper than books. It is freedom for the mind. 📚 #read #blackwomen #fyp #viral bookstoread
