Episode 17: Ain't That Some Mess... Non-People of Color Capitalizing off Black Stories
Manage episode 323988026 series 2989439
With this episode, Your Favorite Librarian shares how some non-people of color are able to capitalize off of Black Literature as authors, social media influencers, and as book bloggers. Independently published authors and some popular Black authors do not receive the same promotional marketing or "push" publicly as many best-selling and well known White authors.
Specifically explore issues like:
- How major publishing houses shape audience reception of Black Literature
- How core audiences of specific subject of the Black Experience are addressed by social influencers
- How trends are used to catapult many non-people of color authors' discussion of the Black Experience, Culture, Queerness, and Identities.
Examine why Your Favorite Librarian feels Black Literature is a reflection of the Black Experience; thus, its contributors should reflect the community it articulates. Other contributors of Black Literature that aren't of color simply provide interruptions of the Black Experience-- not contributions.
Thus why many book bloggers and social influencers are tasked with the essential role--- authentic promotion, that many major publishing houses should innately satisfy. Black Literature isn't a trend, it's a circulation of history.
