" It boggles my mind that people don’t seem to know there is more to our history than slavery."

Thank You. Even if the setting is just the US, there are still so many rich time periods to mine the history of AA folks.. I'd love to see books featuring POC or multicultural romances set during the Jazz age/Harlem Renaissance or during the Gilded Age or featuring the Gens de couleur libres of New Orleans or homefront romances during WWII, just to name a few. I would become hugest fan of an author and scream 'take my money, please!' who delivered on something like this. Especially if it was well written, researched and made me sigh with romantic happiness once I finished the last page.
