Today's #BlackHistoryMonthShoutOut is to the late great Octavia E. Butler, speculative fiction author extraordinaire. Her novel, "Parable of the Sower" was actually the book that ushered me into sci Fi, outside of movies. The book is super salient right now. I advise a read if I were you. Prescient.

Boys are being radicalized online. It’s not that boys are easier it’s that boys get left completely alone.
Here are some “boy books” that affirm Black self image but are good for any boy.
“He’s not a reader” is not a valid excuse. Find a way or Candice Owens & Nick Fuentes will.
