I'm excited to announce that Black-eyed Susan of Color Online and I are going to co-host a new weekly meme--and all of you, of course, are invited to participate!The C.O.R.A.* Diversity Roll Call will alternate between Color Online and Worducopia each week, with a question that will give us the chance to explore more diverse literature--from fiction to poetry to nonfiction. This will include more than just racial diversity--different weeks may focus on ethnicity, sexual preference, abilities, social class . . . the world is our oyster and we intend to embrace it. (OK, that mixed metaphor doesn't quite work, does it? But the image of Susan and me hugging a giant oyster together is cracking me up, so I'm leaving it there).
Questions will be posted on Fridays and you'll have all week to answer them. No need to officially sign up to be a Reader Activist--join in each week as you wish. We'll have a Mr. Linky up for you to link to your post.
What do you think? Are you in?

I'm in!!
Wow! I'm looking forward to it.
Ali, you rock! I'm putting up the button at BES and Color Online.
You crack me up, too. Oyster. LOL
What the hey; I am always in search of a pearl.
I love the idea! I may not join in every week, but I will definitely be an ardent supporter.
Yay! Great idea. I'm looking forward to joining in!
Hi, I come to you from Black Eye Susan's. Sounds like a wonderful meme.
By the way, I'm posting here under a defunct blog. I have a self-hosted blog, and the options here don't allow me to leave my link.

I would like to be in, but I never have figured out what Mr. Linky is. It sounds like a sex toy, but I'm assuming it's a way to participate. If anyone would help me figure it out, I'd love to join!
LOL, no that would be Mr. Kinky, not Mr. Linky! We don't blog about our Mr. Kinkies. We only use them in the dark.
To participate in this week's question, go to this post at Color Online: C.O.R.A. Diversity Roll Call: Week #6--YA You Don't Know. Near the bottom of that post you'll see a box that says, "This site is using Mister Linky's Magical Widgets."
To add your link to the list, enter your name and URL in the form below and press Enter." and then two blank boxes. In the first box, enter your name or blog name or whatever. In the second blog, paste a link to your post answering the question. Then click on the box that says Enter, and magically, your link appears!
