African-American Authors
Welcome to my list of African-American Authors! On this page you will find my favorite African-American Authors, and also their Amazon.com page.
In light of recent changes in the country, People of Color are preferring the use of the word “Black” over that of past terms used to describe their racial preferences. This particular page has been on this website since 2013 so it has traveled far and wide through search engines. That being said, the page will retain its current name yet I wish to go on record and understanding, and using in future additions, the use of the word “Black” when describing peoples and works.
