LibroMobile Cultivating Diversity: LibroMobile is a literary project by Red Salmon Arts & local author Sarah Rafael García established in Santa Ana, California.

LibroMobile Arts Cooperative (LMAC) intends to empower artists of color and culturally enrich residents in Orange County, California. Through social engagement, diverse arts, equitable practices, and direct action, LMAC aspires to counter the impact of gentrification on the local community by providing culturally relevant arts education and reinvesting profits in the local residents, arts industry

, and business economy. Established in 2016 in Santa Ana, LMAC is a community-based collaboration between a mobile bookstore and cultural center practices. It builds on anti-gentrification movement culture and cultivates diversity through literature and the arts by prioritizing Black, Indigenous, people of color and integrating free reading and writing programs, visual exhibits, and year-round creative workshops in Santa Ana, California and its surrounding areas, in-person and virtually across the nation.

About the Poet:
Jax NTP is a poet and educator with an MFA in Creative Writing (Poetry) from CSULB who teaches critical thinking, literature, and composition at IVC, GWC, and SAC. Jax is also an editor and active literary citizen in Southern California, building spaces for language, imagination, curiosity, and difficult questions. Rooted in q***r absurdity and immigration’s afterlives, their poetry follows cephalopod logic, exploring how fragmentation and displacement become inheritances nobody asked for while sending the banal to breakfast with the uncanny and the grotesque. Their work appears in FENCE, Berkeley Poetry Review, Apogee, Cordite Poetry Review, Lunch Ticket, and elsewhere. In 2026, Breakwater Review (University of Massachusetts Boston MFA) nominated Jax NTP for Best New Poets. IG: Jax Ntp

📖 The Book of Unknown Americans by Cristina Henríquez

📚 A powerful and deeply human story about immigrants from across Latin America who come to the U.S. seeking a better life. Through their connected stories, we see love, family, sacrifice, courage, and the many different meanings of home.

A reminder that every person has a story worth knowing.
