Black Lives Matter. And we need Black voices to be heard, so this week Page Love is lifting up the voices of Black authors whose works have made an impact on the literary community and whose ideas and stories are inspiring change. 

If you want to read any of these books or other works related to the Black experience, Black stories or to educate yourself about racism, we've curated a list of books to get you started on our Bookshop page. (https://bookshop.org/lists/black-lives-matter-books-to-read-and-learn) 

Page Love is donating all proceeds from any book sales on our page to the Black Lives Matter Action Fund and the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. 

Authors Featured: 

Jesmyn Ward, "Sing, Unburied, Sing" (https://bookshop.org/a/7227/9781501126079)
