Literary Freedom Project

Literary Freedom Project The Literary Freedom Project is committed to creating spaces that help leverage the power of books, culture, and education.

The Literary Freedom Project is committed to creating spaces that help elevate cultural narratives. Our programs value the variety of histories and cultures found in the Bronx and give educators & residents places to build community and explore social engagement. ONE BOOK ONE BRONX
One Book One Bronx is a new style weekly discussion group that encourages and supports readers. We meet to discuss books that reflect the people of the Bronx. MOSAIC LITERARY CONFERENCE
The Mosaic Literary Conference is an annual event that presents creative ways of keeping books and reading valuable sources of knowledge and creativity. MOSAIC LITERARY MAGAZINE
Mosaic explores the literary arts by writers of African descent, and features interviews, essays, and book reviews. It’s published in conjunction with the Mosaic Literary Conference. EDUCATOR LESSON PLANS
Our lesson plans and workshops, developed for secondary school educators, demonstrate how cultural and social engagement can serve as a connective tool to empower educators to use books, writing, and reading to further engage students.
