I was really glad our RAs decided to go ahead and do another Wild, Wild Midwest conference in 2016. One great thing that happened there (besides the truly wonderful revelations I personally had there) was how everyone came together to donate money to We Need Diverse Books for editor internships in NY, for people of color.<br />We can all feel really good about that for a long time.<br />We are changing lives.Ruth McNally Barshawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10308176951931302853noreply@blogger.com
