What are you reading this Black History Month? Here are 2 books from 18MR’s BLACK HISTORY MONTH READING LIST FOR ASIAN AMERICANS:Taz says Bengali Harlem documents a time in history when “..Bengali Muslims were sneaking into the country by jumping off ships and into America’s most iconic neighborhoods of color, from Tremé in New Orleans to Detroit’s Black Bottom, from West Baltimore to Harlem.”Bianca on Killing the Black Body - “Even though this was first published in 1997, two decades later it is still a relevant and critical text in understanding America’s systemic abuse of Black Women’s bodies and the exclusion of Black women’s reproductive needs in mainstream feminist and civil rights agendas.”Illustrations by Bianca Nozaki-Nasser -- source link
