One Reason You Should Read More

​Did you know that 14 percent of the nation’s adult population don’t read well enough to fill out a job application?
 About four years ago, NewChannel 5 reported that nearly one in eight Nashville adults couldn’t read. YIKES! I don’t know about you but I want every Nashville citizen performing at their best! Because of this, we have to be intentional about making something as vital as reading a part of our daily lives. Otherwise, our nation will lack strong leadership, optimal parenting and well-rounded adults. Let’s tackle this issue together!
​

To encourage more reading, I am going to "kick it old school" and write a book review on every book I read this year. Maybe you’ll decide to read some of the ones I recommend. Also, I will post articles and any other useful information I cross pertaining to literacy in this new section called "What Am I Reading?".

Illiteracy will not win in our city. Share what you're reading with me in the comments below or on my socials @UrbanThreads615 everywhere. Let's make 2019 one heck of a reading year!
