Fall 2014 Edition of the Power List of Best-Selling African-American Books

Our press release announcing the publication of our latest national best-selling books list, the Power List: http://aalbc.it/plfall2014 

 

I’m interested in getting our newspapers to run this bestsellers list.  While this is not the first list of its kind, right now it is the only one.  It is also the most serious attempt by anyone to systematically look at, and regularly report on, the book buying habits of African Americans. 

 

Corporate newspapers essentially do not cover Black books.  There has not been a Black novelist on the NY Times in at least 6 months.  In reality, we could do a better job covering our books ourselves.

 

I think this might be a good way for newspapers to begin covering books in a more meaningful way.
