What does Scholastic Book Have that We Don't

[daniellegfny]

Does there exist a list of Black Schools? What collaborative effort exist to get Black Books in the schools on a consistent basis? Is the AALBC a rallying point to launch an effort to match Scholastic Books efforts?

 

What would be some of the benefits?

Maybe there is a list. I guess it depends on how you Black school.

 

Is it like the public schools I attended where all the students are Black, and the teachers are white?

 

Does it have to be owned, operated, and attended exclusively by Black people? 

 

What is Scholastic doing that you want replicate?

@Troy do you know what scholastic does? And please give me your definition of their impact. I am asking because I need to get feedback before I can frame my answer properly.

Of course, they are perhaps the largest publisher of children's books on Earth.

 

 

So when you asked the question:

I assumed you not inquiring how I can match Scholastic's efforts.  I assumed must have meant matching something that they were doing specifically.

[daniellegfny]

@Troy they are a Sears catalogue of books for young people. Connected with Educational Institution. You can match that.

@daniellegfny you must have missed my last reply: Scholastic is much more that a "catalog of books for young people." They are one of world's leading publishers of books. AALBC is not about to match that, indeed who can?

@Troy the start is the catalog and then asking members to introduce it to the school systems in their area. I am not saying you have to beat Scholastic. I am saying start being the Jackson Hewlitt to their H&R Block. At the very least you will increase revenue for the site to expand and get more professional staffing involved.
