Author E.J. Wade Will be Giving Free Books to Prison Inmates
Summary
Wade grew up in South Florida and found an escape through reading "Goosebumps,, a series by R.L. But it was a lecture he heard from Professor Stephen Engle of Florida Atlantic University that inspired "Where Jims Crows go to Die," a story of The Great Betrayal, with a protagonist who was erased from history, Ida B. Wells-Barnett.The idea is for people who are incarcerated to be able to take a mental break from being in prison. He hopes to inspire people to write a story of their own or dream beyond those 4 walls. "Where Jims Crows go to Die" is growing in popularity for its ability to speak to American history and stay away from partisan politics.E.J. There are mountains of books currently being pulled from the Florida school system but books offer a chance to learn from people with different viewpoints.
