Why PHAT Fiction?
The PHAT Fiction panel discussion was created to explore the impact of hip hop publishers and authors in public libraries and a comparison of racial, ethnic, and regional aspects of urban fiction. Through this discussion, we hope to communicate, collaborate, and share ideas and information with librarians, teachers and supporter of the genre.
