We’re entering the last week of Black History Month but the celebration (and the reading) doesn’t stop. While we close out this beautiful month of celebration, I wanted to highlight a few of my favorite books written by some of our most decorated celebrities. I know President Obama isn’t technically a “celebrity”, but yes he is.
- Dear Black Girls by A’ja Wilson
- The Meaning of Mariah Carey by Mariah Carey
- The Audacity of Hope by President Barack Obama
- Finding Me by Viola Davis
- Will by Will Smith
Fulton Street Books and Coffee is Black and Woman Owned! It is a bookstore and coffee shop located in Tulsa Oklahoma and serves as a safe space for Black & Brown folks. I’ve made it easy for you to purchase this weeks book recs from Fulton Street Books & Coffee by clicking here.
I’ve had the pleasure of reading the wonderful works listed except A’Ja Wilson’s book, but it’s next on my TBR list. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the stories and lives that made these multitalented artists into the people we celebrate through music, film, art, sports, leadership, and intellect.
Happy Reading!
