The National African American Read-In (AARI) is a groundbreaking effort to encourage communities to read Black authors. Since 1990, it has had more than six million global participants.

Do you have a book by a black author you'd like to share with us?

African American Read-In at the Black Prairie Blues Museum in West Point. I read a passage from Michelle Coles' Black was the Ink, where a modern boy goes back in time and meets Senator Hiram Revels. #AfricanAmericanReadIn #BlackHistoryMonth
