*February 2011 marks the 22nd anniversary of the National African American Read-In founded by the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) and its Black Caucus to promote literacy. Teaching our youth to embrace the joy of reading is one way we can all make a difference. When our youth succeed, we all win!
