It's National Library Week! The theme this year is Find Your Joy and we asked @alechiadow.bsky.social about her relationship to her childhood library, the Milford Public Library! 📚✨ Check out Alechia's latest novel, UNTIL THE CLOCK STRIKES MIDNIGHT here: tinyurl.com/227avktu #NationalLibraryMonth

Meet Alechia Dow

"One of my favorite libraries is the Milford Public Library in Milford, Massachusetts. It's where I fell in love with reading, I got my first job as a page, and where the staff supported me through high school by helping me with homework and endlessly believing in me. I became a librarian and an author because of them! It still wows me that they have my books on their shelves."

It was SO cold but the sense of community was overwhelming. Every corner had people handing out hand warmers, warm drinks, and snacks to protestors. My toes were numb and my lashes were frosty but it's nothing compared to the pain our immigrant neighbors are enduring. MN Strong 💙

Minneapolis is MinnMax's home and it's being torn apart by ICE agents with no regard for our rights. ICE is harassing/abducting people of color on a daily basis. Please donate to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota to help provide free legal representation to those in need. bit.ly/minnmaxgives

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

ICE needs to leave Minneapolis. This city is tense. Kids are home from school because the federal government is putting them in danger. This is horrifying and needs to end.
