In support of Black History Month, we have put together a reading list of titles the library has in stock. The list covers race and racism, fiction from black authors, nonfiction titles from our leisure reading collection as well as health care related books.
On the list you'll find titles like "Overcoming everyday racism" and David Olusoga's "Black and British: a forgotten history" as well as fiction from black authors like Marlon James and Akwaeke Emezi (writer of the excellent "Freshwater"), along side biographies, like those of Walter Tull and Michelle Obama. We also have classics like "The Colour Purple", "Beloved" and "If Beale Street Could Talk", books on cookery, as well as more clinically focused titles. We hope there is something for everyone on the list.
You can find the reading list on our catalogue here.
