Six years. Six sell-outs. Every year, thousands of you show up. You buy books. You discover new writers.
You bring your families. You fill the rooms.
And you prove, again and again, that the appetite for Black literature is here.
Look forward to seeing you all at the at the Black British Book Festival.
