In literature, we can create a view of the world that shows us all as equals, breaks down barriers, and imagine a future that is equitable for all. When children read these stories, they begin to accept a world that is different than what they see today. It is my goal to show young readers that children of color (particularly Black children) aren’t simply fighting racism and oppression. They can also solve mysteries, defeat dragons, and travel the universe. (Excerpt from Bryan Patrick Avery’s application for Amplify Black Stories)

The newly selected members of our Storyteller cohort of Amplify Black Stories is comprised of 24 debut, midlist, and vanguard Black authors and illustrators across all children’s literature genres and formats who live and work in the United States, Canada, and Europe.

Please join us in welcoming Andrea J. Loney, Brittany J. Thurman, Bryan Patrick Avery, Cathy Ann Johnson-Conforto, Christine Kendall, Debbie Ann Taylor, Dinah Johnson, Hasani Claxton, Janae Marks, Judy Allen Dodson, K. Tempest Bradford, Leah Henderson, Lisa Moore Ramée, Lisa Stringfellow, Mélina Mangal, Nadia L. Hohn, Nikki Shannon Smith, Pamela M. Tuck, Ronni Davis, Sharee Miller, Sharon Langley, TeMika Grooms, Tonya Duncan Ellis, and Valerie Bolling.

Thank you to all who applied and have supported this program and our mission so far. Together with our sponsors, we look forward to a year of supporting Black storytellers, confronting industry challenges, and fostering change

*** Amplify Black Stories is a living commitment to The Brown Bookshelf's 2020 kidlit industry Call to Action. It’s a partnership initiative between The Brown Bookshelf and the Highlights Foundation to empower Black kid lit creatives with resources and community; and promote publisher-collaborations to craft detailed actionable programs of support for Black kid lit creatives.
