Library Black History Month Display 2013

The Month of February is also known as Black History Month. In recognition, the library has put together a nonfiction book/DVD display featuring different people and events that have influenced American history. This collection ranges from Fredrick Douglass to Barack Obama and can be located next to the Library Café at the Redwood campus.

While the library display features nonfiction, many talented African American authors have put their own stamp on the American culture through their works of literature. Whether it is a mystery or gritty realist novel, these classics are worth at least a checkout from the library. Check out some of the titles listed below to honor not only the historical, but also the cultural influence of African Americans.

A Few Classic Novels by African Americans

· Roots by Alex Haley

· Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston

· Beloved by Toni Morrison

· The Color Purple by Alice Walker

· The Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison

· A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry
