Posted by MahoganyBooks, Washington, D.C.: "We love it here. Black Books All Day. Have you ever walked into a place and felt seen? Or heard? Like you belonged? So often those are the generous comments and loving reflection folks share with us during their visit. It's nothing short of a blessing to us.
"It's the same emotions we felt walking into a Black-owned bookstore in D.C. over 20+ years ago (they've since closed), but it lit a spark of pride in us. To see our stories and faces reflected on the shelves. One we'd excitedly carry as we imagined what our own space would look like one day. Thank you for seeing us. Photo of our first baby. Our Anacostia spot in D.C. A space filled with intention and gratitude. By the way, what you reading this weekend? Where's one of the places you feel seen and in what city?"
