Read To Freedom Shop

Read To Freedom, founded by author Mirika Mayo Cornelius, is in honor of those who fought for the civil right to read during the anti-literacy laws in America that prevented people of color, black people, African Americans from learning how to read. Many enslaved acquired their own freedom through learning and knowing how to read, and these shirts acknowledge that reading was and is still a road to freedom. Stay Free, Keep Reading.
