Troy Posted November 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 I've created a new webpage which showcases all of the Black writers honored by the National Book Foundation. I have 15 years of data so far. As far as I know this information is not available anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirley Gale Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 Wow! Fifteen years of data. This is awesome. I just took a peek. I will take more time to go through this great information. You have provided us with so many resources to draw from!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Posted November 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 I've completed a list, over the weekend, of all the Black winners and nominees for National Book Awards: This year (2015) had the most number of Black nominee, 9 on the long list and 6 finalists, than ever before--more than the first quarter century that the award was given! More than makes up for the watermelon joke, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
