Should you decide to purchase any of these books, I highly recommend ordering from somewhere on Refinery29’s list of Black-owned bookstores (I’ve linked all the books below to Semicolon, a Black woman-owned bookstore & gallery space in Chicago that I can recommend from personal shopping experience). I have found that the $5-$8 premium I pay to order from one of these local shops (instead of from Amazon) is well worth the experience of supporting a local, Black entrepreneur.
