I attended this event it was great.  The love and admiration for both Coates (publisher of BCP) and Walter Mosley was palpable

 

The event just reinforced why I will always respect and admire Walter Mosley:

In the mid 1990’s Walter DECIDED he would support an independently owned Black Press.  Walter, who can publish with major publisher, has published three books with Black Classic Press over the years.  The first book GONE FISHING’ sold almost 100,000 copies.

 

This video from the event describes their relationship

 


This video also features; the Mayor of Baltimore, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake (I'm in a shot with her below); author Walter Mosley; and BCP publishers, W. Paul Coates and Natalie Stokes-Peters
