The United States has been reckoning with race and racism since its inception. Black creatives of all types - novelists, poets, musicians, singers, actors, directors, and more - have used their chosen media to illuminate this struggle and articulate the experience of being Black in America.
This fascinating series, written by Black authors, tells the stories of eight Black creatives whose artistic and cultural contributions have expanded the collective conversation on race. Each book summarises the person's life and career to date, drawing attention to their accomplishments and how they have spoken out as a voice on race. Each book also includes a table of contents, a "Consider This" special feature, a biographical timeline, informative sidebars, quiz questions, a glossary, additional resources, and an index.
This fascinating book introduces readers to the life and legacy of Toni Morrison, a Black novelist whose artistic and cultural contributions expanded and illuminated the collective conversation on race.
