11 Year Old ‘Sick Of Reading About White Boys & Dogs’ Starts Her Own Black Girl Book Club

One young girl is proving that you have to be the change in the world that you want to see. 11-year-old Marley Dias started a campaign to collect and donate 1000 books where black girls are the main characters.
According to Philly Voice reports: “I’m hoping to show that other girls can do this as well,” Dias told PhillyVoice. “I used the resources I was given, and I want people to pass that down and use the things they’re given to create more social action projects — and do it just for fun, and not make it feel like a chore.”
