Hello friends,

I’m sure you are all aware of the things going on in the U.S. and Canada in terms of anti-racism, black rights, police brutality, etc. So, today I decided to create a list of books to help you educate yourself. I have not read all of these, as we all have to do better and be better. So here are some fiction books by black authors. This is by no means a conclusive list! These are just some that are high up on my list of books I need to read. I encourage you all to have a look and continue to read from these amazing authors.
