Heyyy Yall!
It's that time of year again! Join myself and @BrittWriterly as we host #Kwanzaathon: A Week Long Creative Experience. This year's group read is Bud, Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis.
Any and everyone is encouraged to participate but remember this week is to highlight, uplift, reflect, and create with all things Black at the forefront. #Kwanzaathon came from the idea that a lot of holidays are celebrated in American culture in December, but one we wish had more representation, especially in the writing community on YouTube is Kwanzaa.
