@goodreads Revisiting ‘Love Child’s Hotbed of Occassional Poetry’ by Nikky Finney.

It's Friday! What are you reading this weekend?

“We should measure the prosperity of a nation not by the number of millionaires, but by the absence of poverty, the prevalence of health, the efficiency of the public schools, and the number of people who can [and] do read worthwhile books.” W. E. B. Du Bois - February, 1953

Join us! This month we write love letters, to ourselves, to those no longer here, or to anyone who needs it. #WriteYourStory Get your tickets here for the next workshop. paypal.com/instantcommerc… If you already purchased a prompt journal, the workshop is FREE! ☺️
