Dear Reader,
This will be our last newsletter for 2020. I pray 2021 will bring us all closer together both spiritually and physically. The global pandemic has caused a great deal of personal and financial loss.
The highlight of the year was the tremendous support, people of all colors, showed each other. While the media tends to focus on the negative, the real story is that people have demonstrated a tremendous capacity to support one another — when it matters most. For this reason, I know we will come out of this pandemic better than ever. My hope is that AALBC will help enrich 2021 through the stories we share.
Despite the pandemic, you are why I’ve been able to provide this platform to celebrate Black culture through books. Your paid subscription helps support this effort.
Peace and Love,
Troy Johnson
Founder & Webmaster, AALBC.com
