In celebration of Black History Month, we invite you on a literary journey featuring a selection of books by and about Black Canadians. These are only a few of the inspiring books, music, and films about Black Canadians found in our collections. For further resources and a broader research scope we suggest you take a look at our library guide on Black Studies: Equity, Diversity, & Inclusivity: Library Resources.
