A year ago today, @lexpublib cut the ribbon on the
#LunaLibrary in honor of our late daughter, Kamaria Naundi Francis Spaulding! The book collection features ALL BLACK history nonfiction and fiction books with BLACK character leads for children K-12! My daughter wrote a grant in high school to open up her own “freedom school” at the Carnegie Center for Literacy & Learning one day.. Though she left us in the physical form before that Dream could happen, we were able to open this up in partnership with LPL as a way to continue her legacy of education, diversity and inclusion!
Between the summer of 2020 and 2022, prior to the opening of this physical library, we gave away over 1,500 BRAND NEW black history books to youth in Kentucky l.
Please do me a favor this month (and every month) and visit The Luna Library at the Northside location on Russel Cave!
