Monday Inspiration: Marley Dias Surpasses Her Goal!
In case you missed this… here’s a little Monday inspiration for you… AGAIN in the form of Marley Dias who initiated a book drive campaign to collect 1000 books with black female characters. I wrote about it in a blog post here.
It turns out she was successful and was interviewed by the Nightly Show hosted by Larry Wilmore. You simply HAVE to watch it. Now.
