What is "Read Woke"? 

Read Woke was created by librarian Cicely Lewis. For a book to be "woke," it must:

  • challenge a social norm
  • give voice to the voiceless
  • provide information about a group that has been disenfranchised
  • seek to challenge the status quo
  • have a protagonist from an underrepresented or oppressed group

Read more about reading woke in this article Cicely Lewis wrote for School Library Journal.
