Powered by BRAE: Elevating Black Literature

Book events powered by the Black Readers Appreciation Event (BRAE) are more than gatherings—they are a movement. Rooted in the mission of uplifting Black authors and readers, BRAE creates spaces where literature, culture, and community intersect. Our events celebrate storytelling in all its forms, providing a platform for Black voices to be heard, appreciated, and amplified. Through curated experiences, author spotlights, and reader engagement, BRAE ensures that Black literature continues to thrive, inspire, and connect generations. When a book event is powered by BRAE, it carries the spirit of empowerment, excellence, and the love of Black storytelling.
