February marks Black History Month. This year, Massy Books has partnered with independent curator,  Founder and Director of BlackArt Gastown Nya Lewis to create a cross-genre list of titles. This list, which includes feminist critiques, art, poetry, critical theory, children’s books, and works that evade categorization, was co-created by Lewis and Massy booksellers, Hari Alluri and Patricia Massy.  May it support a journey of celebrating Black brilliance, resistance and joy. 

We hope this list encourages learners to engage and uplift local Black movements. For those located in Vancouver, we encourage you to learn about and support Hogan’s Alley Society, Black Arts Vancouver, BC Community Alliance, Afro Van Connect and Black Lives Matter Vancouver. 

BlackArt Gastown’s exhibition, Quilt of Hope, curated by Nya Lewis, is currently open at Massy Books until March 1, 2021. Learn more here.
