read some black authors then. you don't need to like them, and you never know, you might like one!

>>9188149
I cannot read about black people, that is simply not an option.

>>9188051
Are there any books by black authors that aren't about race?

i don't know the race of the authors i read

>>9188161
then they're white.

>>9188153
Why?

>>9188166
This makes a lot of sense. Every novel that a black author writes is about race and being black. It must be a cash cow.

>>9188158
No.

No, black literature is solely reliant on race because that's what works and gets the awards.
I swear Maya Angelou and Ralph Ellison made the worst feely feels book ever just to win awards in literally circles.

most non-american black lit
almost all African lit
Marlon James' Seven Killings
Delany
Walcott
Dumas
Pushkin
de Assis

A lot of genre fic crap

>>9188607
Puskin is black? What?

>Ossip Abramovich Gannibal's father, Pushkin's great-grandfather, was Abram Petrovich Gannibal (1696–1781), an African page kidnapped to Constantinople as a gift to the Ottoman Sultan and later transferred to Russia as a gift for Peter the Great."

I'm going to draw a line in the sand here and say that quadroons count and octoroons don't.

>>9189856
The tedious cunt makes everything about himself so there's one.

>>9188607

Also pretty sure Tutuola doesn't explicitly say any character was black.
