Dear Reader,
Many of us are celebrating Black History month now. At AALBC.com we celebrate Black History 365 days a year, every year. One month of recognizing and celebrating the accomplishments of Black people can not reverse centuries of enslavement, jim crow, and marginalization.
Despite it all, 2018 promises to be a great year for the Black Book Ecosystem; 2017 was a record year for website traffic for AALBC.com; more new Black-owned bookstores opened in 2017 than any year in the prior two decades; alliances are forming to combat the domination of massive corporations.
