Native

[close] Mabrika! Welcome. My name is Jonilee, when I was looking for groups to join on good reads I didn't come across any that seemed to center indigenous books, authors, stories, etc. so I'm making one myself for anyone who ran into the same issue. Tribal membership is not necessary to join, this will be a welcome and open space to share and reflect on all Indigenous stories and experiences (including queer, two spirit, afro-indigenous, non-federally recognized tribes etc. etc. )

[close] You are a part of a Native American tribe - the Cherokees- in their golden age. Create your character, choose your role in the tribe, make friends, make enemies, and maybe even find love and start a family! Anything could happen in the Cherokee tribe!

[close] If you want to learn English or Arabic etc...or help other to learn.. this will be your place, your Club. It's your chance accelerate your learning by Discussing with Native speakers.. and browsing wide range of books that can help, or get advice you need.. It's also A book club .. but with the tongue you want to acquire .. :)

[close] Melanated Magic will feature an abundance of authors with melanated magic. Books will be a broad mixture of fiction and non fiction, YA, children's books, personal development and everything in between...… Please see the 'to read' bookshelf for the books that will be featured. The plan is to read (or listen to) a book every two months then share thoughts, feelings and topics and explore a few different methods of connection and engagement e.g. google hangouts, surveys nothing to onerous or homework like. There will also be at lease three annual meet ups scheduled in the Greater Manchester area and some trips to literary events further afield, but members can be based anywhere. Feel free to suggest any books. The meetups will be aimed at supporting independent businesses.
