"I’m staying connected by focusing on checking in with friends, supporting local artists..."
"... and mutual aid projects, listening and buying friend's music and art, and making plans for the new year ahead for Free Books for All (a mutual aid project aimed at disseminating books by BIPOC authors across Brooklyn)."
I am giving back by trying to be present for my loved ones and investing spare time and energy on Free Books for All.
"I am doing research and making plans to find ways to connect with local communities to see what their needs are in terms of making literature more representative of the readers, more accessible, and more fun. Reading for me has been a way to not only escape my real world, but also helps me envision a better tomorrow."
"Reading provides new ways of finding solace and happiness for myself amidst the chaos, which is what makes me feel really passionate and connected to the project I'm working on."
We asked Arti to call out her favourite organization/hub/person who is doing amazing work in her community.
