Okay, I have sent a card to Pam! I hope she likes it!I have also received a postcard from Pam. Your Angela Davis portrait gave me some amazing inspiration too as did your Diversity Reading, the stories, authors and far-flung places they were from made me want to read and experience them for myself. Thanks for bringing them to my attention.

Let's think about diversity for our postcard writing topic this month! Who are the authors that you normally read? are they cis, white men? Maybe change that up this month! Tell us about your favorite authors who are BIPOC, women, LGBTQIA+, disabled, ethnic or religious minorities, and minorities of all kinds!
Here are a couple of web sites to find some great books.
* Banned Books Week: Frequently Challenged Books with Diverse Content
* We Need Diverse Books
And some great GR Listopias...
* Best Books Written by BIPOC Authors
* Social Justice: Books on Racism, Sexism, and Class
* Best Multicultural General Fiction
And again, if you have more to say than will fit on a postcard, feel free to fill up a notecard or write a letter! If you don't have the time or inclination, that's fine too.
