This week, we’re interrupting our scheduled content for a conversation about systemic racism in YA publishing. We’re also talking about some of our very favourite books by Black authors, and what we can do to encourage and amplify Black voices in YA! A big thank you to Andy Puth-Grey @cupcakeandy for letting us share his story.
