Join us in our mission to uplift and empower Black girls through literature.Published Amazon | Bookshop | Goodreads About Love Radio Together, we can make a difference in the lives of Black girls everywhere. We would love to have you be a part of our journey. If you want to get involved, please reach out to us. We are currently looking for volunteers (yes! Board members, too), book donations and sponsors to help us achieve our mission. We are dedicated to empowering Black girls through literature and education, and providing them with the tools they need to become strong, confident and resilient individuals. Through these partnerships and initiatives, Black Girl Book Collective is working towards creating a world where Black girls have access to the resources and support they need to thrive. Why? Because period poverty and adultification work simultaneously to impede on the education of Black girls. As well as our partnership with the Detroit Pistons donating 313 hygiene kits to period-having people for women's empowerment month.

To support this mission, Black Girl Book Collective partners with organizations such as Habitat for Humanity to build lending libraries, of which Scholastic contributed a donation of 5,000 books. We believe that by changing the narrative and representation of Black girls in literature, we can help them see themselves in a more positive light and ultimately lead healthier and happier lives. We strive to combat adultification and create a world where Black girls see themselves in the books they read and the stories they hear. Our mission is to empower Black girls through bibliotherapy by addressing mental health, identity development and personal growth. After a big couple of years as a budding organization, I am proud to reintroduce Black Girl Book Collective - my nonprofit dedicated to using bibliotherapy to combat the adultification of Black girls.
