Lit in Colour was created by Penguin and the Runnymede Trust with the aim of finding innovative and practical ways to give schools the support and tools they need to introduce more books by people of colour into the classroom. As part of the campaign, Penguin commissioned a team of academics to conduct research which uncovered that barely any young people were being taught books by writers of colour, and that a complex range of barriers were causing this - including teachers’ limited resources and time, as well as a lack of knowledge and confidence in talking about race in the classroom
