(Discuss & Read) \nThere will be a live Q&A session where attendees will be able to ask the author questions. \nEvent Background Info: After noticing many bestselling books about Black Americans that are not authored by people who identify themselves as Black American or African-American\, JFAM Johnson wanted to know WHY! Although there has been a great increase in the number of Black American and African-American authors creating their own narratives in the children’s book genre\, their discovery revealed the rarity of Black and Brown children’s books authored by Black and Brown children. Now\, JFAM Johnson is on a mission to inspire youth to create their ideal world\, conquer all disharmony\, and crush all stereotypes by authoring books\, starting a motivational clothing brand\, and producing other works of the imagination. \nAbout The Author: JFAM JOHNSON™ is the name for a collective of creatives\, 8 siblings ranging in ages from 6 to 16 years old. Emmanuel B. Johnson\, Abigail C. Johnson\, Elizabeth M. Johnson\, Jael K. Johnson\, Phoebe Shalom D. Johnson\, Sarah Naveh K.Y. Johnson\, Judah A. H. Johnson\, and Joshua S. B. Johnson make-up this eccentric group of young creators. During the pandemic of 2020\, JFAM JOHNSON™ decided wanted to encourage each other and felt a need to do more than just talk about doing something to support each other. They came up with a plan work as a focused team to create great literature\, personalized clothing\, and other works of the imagination. Their mission is to educate and empower Black American boys and girls by promoting self-awareness and self-acceptance. They reside in Baltimore\, Maryland. \nPlease follow and like us:
