The Read Woke Challenge was originally created by Cicely Lewis, a school librarian in Georgia. It encourages community members to read “woke” books and engage in thoughtful dialogue surrounding the themes and topics addressed in the books. What are woke books? They are titles that focus on protagonists from underrepresented groups or challenge stereotypes and social norms. #BooksMatter #ReadWoke |
