Let’s celebrate black beauty on YA covers.
It’s Black History Month here in the United States, and what better time to celebrate black beauty? Let’s take a peek at some of the YA covers that feature their amazing black leads.
There still is a lot of work to be done in terms of inclusive YA - there’s not nearly enough black leads, and queer black leads, and disabled black leads, or any combination of them, and not nearly enough represented on covers. But for today, we can admire the beauty we’ve been given so far - and remind publishing that hey, these books are great, and representation is important. More, please! View the full post - with YA covers in all their glory! - on YA Interrobang.
“Black lives matter” does not mean “fuck anyone who’s not black,” it means “support black people.”
“Gay rights” doesn’t mean “fuck anyone who’s not gay,” it means “support gay people.”
“Trans rights” doesn’t mean “fuck all cis people,” it means “support trans people.”
“Respect women” doesn’t mean “fuck all men,” it means “support women.”
It’s not about you.
Anyways happy Black History Month!
Remember to support Black people! Not just famous black people, but Black people in your everyday life. Elevate their voices. Listen to them. Black men, women and nonbinary people. Lightskin and darkskin Black people. Disabled Black people, Black people with all sorts of conditions. LGBTQ+ and cishet Black people. Black people all over the world.
Not just February, but every day of every month, every year.
