Happy Tuesday! Black stories belong on every shelf—especially for our children 📚✨
Did you know that for decades, Black children’s literature was nearly nonexistent in mainstream publishing? For a long time, our babies couldn’t see themselves reflected in the books they read. But thanks to Black authors, illustrators, and publishers fighting for representation, we’re changing that narrative—one book at a time.
Seeing one of BlackGold Publishing’s titles among so many children’s books is a reminder of how far we’ve come and how much further we can go. Our kids deserve to see themselves as heroes, dreamers, and history-makers. And we’re just the ones to do it!🖤
