But for too many people, that door is locked, barred, or simply non-existent. We’re changing that. 🧵 +- **T2:** Today we’re launching the Crimson Leaf Narrative and Literacy Campaign. It’s not just a book drive. It’s a systemic push for narrative equity. +- **T3:** What is "Narrative Equity"? It’s the idea that every person deserves access to stories that reflect their reality and expand their possibility. +- **T4:** We’ve identified 50 "Book Deserts" across the country where access to new, diverse fiction is nearly zero. +- **T5:** Our plan: 10,000 books delivered, 100 author visits (virtual and local), and a free digital curriculum for educators. +- **T6:** We aren't asking for "charity." We’re asking for an investment in the future of human empathy. +- **T7:** Because when you change the stories a culture reads, you change the culture itself. +- **T8:** Our first shipment leaves Monday. We’re still looking for 10 more "Crate Champions" to help with the final push. +- **T9:** Narrative is a human right.
