I'm working on reading more nonfiction as it complements my reading of sci fi and fantasy, and I found that Black nonfiction authors were easier to find in some genres than others. As a newb to the genre, I wanted to talk to more experienced nonfiction readers about why Black authors of nonfiction are important, navigating issues with access, and some of our favorite nonfiction reads by Black authors.
