All Black Errythang Poetry Book Set added to United States Library of Congress Collection

New York City-based African-American author Chanel Murray announced that the newly published poetry book set, All Black Errythang, has been added to the U.S. Library of Congress collection. The set includes a thought-provoking book of poems that capture the uniquely complex and often controversial aspects of Black life in America as well as an accompanying discussion and action guide to help readers process and engage with the content in meaningful and actionable ways.

The Library of Congress is the world's largest library, offering access to the creative record of the United States and extensive materials from around the world both on-site and online. It is the main research arm of the U.S. Congress and the home of the U.S. Copyright Office.

"I'm honored that our Nation's oldest federal cultural institution has accepted All Black Errythang into its collection and feel the tremendous gravity of this moment for Black history and the appreciation for works of art that celebrate Black culture," said Chanel Murray, M.Ed, All Black Errythang author and advocate for racial equity. "Black history is American history, so it's not lost on me that the highest Library of our country, founded during a time when strict antiliteracy laws were enacted against Black people, has now accepted a book that challenges the status quo and perceptions of Blackness in our society."
