Reviews
"Brown and Palmer have crafted a love letter to Black families that will echo through the ages." -- The Horn Book, "This is a must-have for Black youth to experience art, photographs, and stories that will entertain the entire family." -- Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, "Brown and Palmer have curated a kaleidoscopic vision of diasporic Black experience, including fiction, historical narrative, poetry, and visual content, geared to be accessible to young readers, but appealing to all." -- Hyperallergic, "In 1920, W.E.B. Du Bois helped found The Brownies' Book , a monthly magazine of games, stories, and pictures, all designed, as the inside cover of each issue declared, 'for all children but especially for ours.' In this new edition, sociologist Karida L. Brown and her husband, visual artist Charly Palmer, deliver the exuberance of the original to today's kids and parents.... With work ranging from the hilariously lighthearted to the breathtakingly empowering, this book consoles, explains, entertains, and inspires us all." -- Oprah Magazine, "Sociologist Brown and artist Palmer reimagine W. E. B. DuBois's early 1900s children's magazine with a splendid assemblage of essays, poems, and art from Black creators that aim to lavish 'resounding Love' on Black youth.... Enriched by stunning and expressive acrylics, oils, and collages from Palmer and other artists, this serves as a heartfelt tribute to young people of color and their 'reflection of resplendent beauty, ancient history... and irreplaceable value.' It's a standout." -- Publishers Weekly , Starred Review, "Sociologist Brown and artist Palmer reimagine W. E. B. DuBois's early 1900s children's magazine with a splendid assemblage of essays, poems, and art from Black creators that aim to lavish 'resounding Love' on Black youth...

Synopsis
NAACP Image Award and Black Caucus of the American Library Association (BCALA) Literary Award Winner "[A] heartfelt tribute to young people of color and their 'reflection of resplendent beauty, ancient history ... and irreplaceable value.' It's a standout." Publishers Weekly , starred review Inspired by the groundbreaking work of W. E. B. Du Bois, this beautiful collection brings together an outstanding roster of Black creative voices to honor, celebrate, and foster Black excellence. The New Brownies' Book reimagines the very first publication created for African American children in 1920 as a must-have anthology for a new generation. Expanding on the mission of the original periodical to inspire the hearts and minds of Black children across the country, esteemed scholar Karida L. Brown and award-winning artist Charly Palmer have gathered the work of more than fifty contemporary Black artists and writers. The result is a book bursting with essays, poems, photographs, paintings, and short stories reflecting on the joy and depth of the Black experience--an immersive treasure trove that reminds readers of all ages that Black is brilliant, beautiful, and bold. IMPORTANT HISTORICAL LEGACY: In 1920, W. E. B. Du Bois and the founders of the NAACP published The Brownies' Book: A Monthly Magazine for Children of the Sun , which included art, stories, letters, and activities to inspire children, share Black history, and celebrate their identities. As the first periodical for African American youth, this was an important work in the history of children's literature. The New Brownies' Book revives its mission to inspire the young readers of today. INCREDIBLE CONTRIBUTORS: This book features the work of talented and exciting Black creators, including playwright and poet Ntozake Shange, writer and editor Damon Young, Def Poetry Jam co-creator and painter Danny Simmons, sociologist and educator Dr. Bertice Berry, children's book illustrator James E. Ransome, muralist Fabian Williams, collage artist Marryam Moma, and many more. BEAUTIFUL KEEPSAKE: This collection presents a celebratory array of artwork, from detailed paintings and drawings to photographs and collages. It includes stories meant to be shared by children and adults, offering a way for all families--especially Black families--to connect across generations through the power of literature. With its meaningful content and deluxe packaging, this hardcover volume makes a thoughtful gift for new parents, grandparents, or inquisitive readers of all ages. Perfect for: Parents, grandparents, and young readers, especially in the Black community Artists and writers inspired by themes of family, community, and empowerment Adults and teens who work with and care for young children Youth program leaders and community organizers Teachers, librarians, and educators Fans of the contributing artists and writers Art book collectors Audiences who seek out racial diversity and representation in the media they consume Fans of The Fire This Time , Glory: Magical Visions of Black Beauty , and Black Futures

    Item arrived well packaged as the seller assured it would be. Thank you very much for that!! To all the other sellers out there…..bubble wrap goes a long way just saying. I have had several packages arrive damaged due to poor packaging knowing that today’s carriers don’t care what’s in the bag or box. Seller responded quickly when I had initially reached out to them about assuring it would be well packaged and protected. Item arrived in the new condition it was listed as. Thank you.
