There was enough interest, I felt, to revive this challenge. Since I have dated it retroactively to Jan. 2015 so that participants will know that they can add works they have already read for other challenges.

Over on the other thread Dlw28 mentioned a new database that catalogues diversity in SFF. Thanks to Dlw28! Here is the website http://doublediamond.net/aow/homepage.php

I explored it a bit. It has a lot of books I've never seen before--wondering how many are self-published. However, it is still a very good resource for race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and disability in SFF.

<p>This challenge started on April 1, but I have backdated it so that books read for this year's challenges can count.</p><p> There are 7 participants with 14 books read (5 reviewed). </p>

Hey there; would love to do this challenge but just didn't have time this year. Will you be running it again in 2016?
