We're the People, a group of bloggers, authors, academics and publishers, have been working since 2015 to introduce more diversity into Summer Reading lists. Each year's group suggests and closely reads books to "identify microaggressions, cultural misappropriation or examples that negated our struggle for social justice and inclusion."
The recommended books are by and about IPOC (Indigenous and People of Color), people with disabilities and people from the LGBTQ+ community. Each book has at least two readers and is thoroughly discussed, vetted and given second reads.
Stop here for the full free downloadable 2018 list.
