EMW's Read-A-Thon is all about reading books that align with our core values -- which include empowerment of marginalized groups, self-love, and inclusivity.

//About the Library//
The EMW Community Library supports socially-just community action by offering resources to imagine and build a more liberatory world. Our space is a refuge for members of the community to connect, create, and share experiences in solidarity. Our collection centers the narratives and creative works of marginalized peoples (especially queer and trans people of color) and provides access to materials that contribute to the understanding of oppression, activism, and social justice.
