FOR THE REVOLUTIONARY READER!
An award winning social justice driven children's bookstore and learning center
dedicated to critical literacy that promotes inclusivity and diversity by
honoring historically marginalized communities.
We are built by what the ancestors
and descendants had to do
to survive. To thrive.
Founded in 2021, Rohi’s Readery is an award winning social justice driven children's bookstore and learning center dedicated to critical literacy that promotes inclusivity and diversity by honoring historically marginalized communities.
Driven by a commitment to amplify the voices of historically marginalized communities, including Black, Indigenous, Arab, Asian, Pacific Islander, Latine, LGBTQIA+, and the disability and neurodiverse communities, the Readery strives to create a space where individuals can find liberation in their identity while learning about the diverse stories of others.
It's more than a physical space. It is an experience to feel freedom in our most authentic selves.
"we read something we learn something
we share it with the world!"
Located on stolen ancestral Seminole and Tequesta land.
The Readery makes this acknowledgment to remind ourselves that, by being here today, we strive to remedy this injustice through our beliefs and actions in rooting content in anti-racist work and disrupting colonized pedagogies.
