February is Black History Month

 http://www.readingrockets.org/calendar/blackhistory/

I've been meaning to share this great resource for books and other media for Black History Month. It's compiled by the great site Reading Rockets (we always have a link to them from our Links list) and is way more comprehensive than anything I would put together. That being said, here are a few books that have recently been added to the collection at RML:



All the Right Stuff by Walter Dean Myers (YA Myers)
Belle, the Last Mule at Gee's Bend by Calvin A. Ramsey (JE Ramsey)
Hand in Hand: ten black men who changed America by Andrea Davis Pinkney 
Heart and Soul: the story of America and African Americans by Kadir Nelson 
(J 973.04 Nelson)
I, Too, Am America by Langston Hughes
The Mighty Miss Malone by Christopher Paul Curtis (JF Curtis)
Never Forgotten by Patricia McKissack (J 811 McKissack)
Unspoken: a story from the Underground Railroad by Henry Cole (JE Cole)
The Wonder of Charlie Anne by Kimberly Newton Fusco (JF Fusco)
