Day 7: Black Shelfie Today’s picture is my bottom shelf on my color coordinated bookshelf. It’s my smallest and it’s the first time I decided to arrange my books by color. It’s taken me a while to get used to, but I feel arranging my books by last name is the best. I can find […]

I feel that black literature, is getting more recognition these days although I still feel that more consideration is given to African Literature. […]
