For Black History Month we’ve partnered with Cree Myles and All Ways Black to highlight Black stories and authors. Check out Cree’s favorite book picks below, and hear about Cree’s curation process in her own words:
“When looking for books to showcase I am constantly, in the words of Australian critic Beejay Silcox, mining for awe. I’m looking for a story that will leave me different than it found me, that will introduce me to a character that will linger in my psyche for years to come. One of my favorite things about my job is that the Black literary canon is still being written, and I have the privilege of contributing merely by celebrating the greatness. Here are some of my favorites, I hope you enjoy.”
