11… Black Writers I LOVE

I would not be the person I am today without these authors, their stories, the characters, and the challenges they gave me to face in the mirror and the world. Black authors have done more to open my mind than any other demographic.

How to Love a Jamaican by Alexia Arthurs

In How to Love a Jamaican, Alexia Arthurs compiles a book full of resonating short stories. I can’t stop thinking about the various characters and stories she tells. Also, she went to the Iowa Writers' Workshop. Yay Iowa!
