5 Ways To Support Black Authors

Описание: Let’s talk about some incredible Black authors and how you can help lift Black voices in fiction. I’ve created a list of links to get us all started, but please share more! You are welcome to share your own books in the comments if you are a Black author in our community. Also, if you’ve read a book by a Black author that you loved, share it with us here!
