While browsing through my Facebook post earlier today, I discovered a Treasure trove of  authors of colour, some of them I never heard about or read. I don't have to tell you guys on here, that I went wild on Amazon and got myself a whole new library of BRAN (Black Romance Author Network) members work.

Then I got to thinking, because even after I bought myself a whole heap of novels by auhors of colour, Amazon still insisted that I be directed to other romance authors, you know what I mean, don't let me have to spell it out here.

But why, why should that happen to me in 2019? I've always maintained that athletes of colour should not complain about the treatment meted out to them by team managers and owners. I believe that if we as a unit support each other, whether it be in sport, music, literature, design work (all of it) we will somehow prevail against a society that seem destined to exclude people of colour from achievement.

The cop out that readers, and by readers the inference is, 'white women readers' will not relate to romance written by authors of colour, or any genre, written by authors of colour is a lame ass excuse to exclude.

Call me what you want, but I strongly believe that we can do ggreat things. but to do that we have to come together and work as a team.
