About us

Launched in 2005, the Literary Freedom Project is an arts organization based in the Bronx that understands the significant role cultural identity plays in the development of intelligent, creative, and engaged communities. These qualities are crucial for the sustenance and strengthening of cultures and can be nurtured through a blend of academic, vocational, and pleasure reading. A fundamental foundation for the growth of smart, creative, and engaged communities can be established by linking cultural identity to reading.

Our programs seek to build a cohesive conversation that places books, culture, and education at the center of all program development. In 1998, LFP launched Mosaic, which focuses on the literary arts by people of African descent and is supplemented by lesson plans for high school educators. The magazine was followed in 2002 by the Mosaic Literary Conference. MLC is an annual event that provides a platform for literature-based creative thinking and knowledge sharing. One Book One Bronx, launched in 2017, hosts weekly public restorative conversations related to gentrification, social justice, women’s empowerment, criminal justice, racial inequality, and more.
