Festive Picture Books for Christmas by Black Authors

Recently chef and author Carla Hall appeared on a talk show to discuss her new holiday picture book Carla and the Christmas Cornbread. She shares that while working on her memoir, “we took one of the chapters from my childhood and turned it into a children’s book.” Hall’s book was released this month and is described as a “heartwarming tale.” It is so exciting that five of the books on the list were all published this year, in 2021. Christmas is always about sharing traditions, which sometimes means reading favorite stories. Hopefully, the new Christmas stories featured can create new memories and traditions.

December 2021 โ€” Music for Your Inbox
Carolyn Chen's playful piece, How to assemble a..., is performed as a metaphor for how we assemble as a group of people
Music for Your Inbox

Repost from @musicforyourinbox:

โ€ข

Our mail art this month is created by @sensei_aishitemasu , an artist, cultural critic, filmmaker, and writer whose work explores race, pop culture, social justice, political activism, and sociopolitical theories. We met Seren through @humanresourcesla โ€˜s Time Space Money residency, where she created two films, The [Black] Americans EXTRAS: Detroit and Five Years Since Ferguson. As we worked on Carolyn Chenโ€™s piece for this monthโ€™s release and thought about the question of โ€œhow to assemble,โ€ we realized Serenโ€™s work in art, community building, and activist organization was an important extension to that question.

Seren has created an incredible piece of mail art that reimagines a paper fortune teller toy. Titled โ€œHow to assembleโ€ฆ a future,โ€ it juxtaposes the childhood experience of hopefully dreaming about the future with adult contemplations about the future, which are oftentimes accompanied by a sense of dread.

Weโ€™re so honored to have her work in this monthโ€™s release and super excited to send it to you! The link to get the print/video pairing is in our bio ๐Ÿ“„๐Ÿ“ฌ
