About Mx. L's Book Picks
I've curated a list of books accessible to high schoolers which represent authors and topics of marginalized communities. Far too many ELA classes focus almost exclusively on white, cisgender, male authors, while the vast wealth of literary works by BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ authors are given less time and space in the ELA classroom. I hope by bringing these books into the classroom, all students will feel empowered, seen, and represented.
Happy reading! -Mx. L
