Black-Owned: The Revolutionary Life of the Black Bookstore
at The Dock Bookshop
Join us for a special evening with Char Adams, author of Black-Owned: The Revolutionary Life of the Black Bookstore. In this powerful new work, Adams explores how Black-owned bookstores have served as vital hubs for culture, community, and resistance—nurturing generations of readers, writers, and changemakers.
A former reporter for NBC News and People, Adams’s writing on race and identity has been featured in The New York Times, The New Republic, Oprah Daily, Vice, Teen Vogue, and Bustle. A proud Philadelphia native now based in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, Char brings her journalist’s insight and passion for storytelling to this illuminating look at the legacy and future of Black literary spaces.
