Re-Cite features People of Color reading important, speeches, correspondence and more, written by People of Color. In this day and age we are often limited in what we consume to the mediums of Video and Audio. As a result there are so many critical works currently overlooked because they were written and sometimes spoken but never recorded via video or audio. We do not attempt to create a dramatic recitation we simply read the words so that you can listen and bring them into your life.
