Read Native Challenge
What is the Read Native Challenge?
The Read Native Challenge was designed by the American Indian Library Association to "support and recognize our Indigenous authors, scientists, legislators, storytellers, and creators" throughout the year in addition to Native American Heritage Month (November).
