lgbtqreads:

There are certainly not nearly as many as there should be (more on that coming soon on the site), but here are a few (all authors are Black unless otherwise noted, and non-Black authors’ books are included only if I personally know for a fact they employed Black sensitivity readers):

https://lgbtqreads.com/2016/12/09/fave-five-queer-yana-with-black-mcs-by-black-authors/ (Five YA/NA novels with Black MCs)

Plus:

• The Secrets of Eden by Brandon Goode (YA)
  
• Sunday You Learn How to Box by Bil Wright (YA)
• Here Comes the Sun by Nicole Dennis-Benn
  
• Under the Udala Trees by Chinelo Okparanta
  
• The Salt Roads by Nalo Hopkinson
• Cinder Ella by S.T. Lynn (This is a case where I don’t know the race of the author, but it’s the only Fantasy Romance I know of with a Black female trans protagonist)
• The Summer We Got Free by Mia McKenzie

For m/m Romance, you’ll wanna check out this Goodreads list: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/5209.African_American_Gay_Romance

Also hiiiighly recommend you check out Brandon Taylor’s work; he writes fantastic essays and short stories in Catapult and Lit Hub.

Of course, for memoir, Redefining Realness by Janet Mock and Zami: A New Spelling of My Name by Audre Lorde. 

Most importantly, though, I highly recommend bookmarking these sites - they should help a whole lot more!
