"PoC" stands for Persons of Color, and the challenge is to read a goal number of books about PoC characters, and you can find the original site here. I'm really excited for this challenge, since I think there's a frightening lack of diversity in the YA market, and we need to do everything we can to encourage diverse characters and discourage white-washing. Sadly, since this is the third challenge I signed up for, I'm aiming kind of low to start out, but I hope to highly exceed my expectations.
I'm starting out at Level 1: 1-3 books, and I'll be picking from the list below.
