African Rainbow Family - Reading List

Exciting news! Book28 teamed up African Rainbow Family on a queer African reading list. This post features twelve books available on our shelves which centre the many varied experiences of being black and LGBTQIA+, whose writers offer all sorts of perspectives.

You can download a brochure of the reading list here. Please feel free to print and use in any way that is useful to yourself or your organisation. 

African Rainbow Family is a grassroots charity offering support to and advocating for queer people of colour. We're proud to be able to give some exposure to the work they do, which you can read more about on their website: https://africanrainbowfamily.org/. This is our second collaboration with ARF, following our July 2023 event with the authors of 'Our Stories Told by Us: Celebrating the African contribution to the UK HIV response'. 

Have we missed any book you think might add to our collection? Got any thoughts on how to diversify our shelves? Please send any feedback to [email protected]. Til then, happy reading Alphabet Mafia
