For romance publishing, 1994 was The Summer of Black Love. 1994 was a banner year for Black romance, with more books with Black main characters published in a single year than in any year prior. This week we'll introduce ourselves and set the syllabus for the season. Your hosts for this wild ride are Nicole Jackson and Steve Ammidown, two friends, historians, and romance readers.
