Black Classic Press

Books & Publishing

Started in a Baltimore basement with the belief that the most important Black books weren't being kept in print. W. Paul Coates -- father of Ta-Nehisi Coates -- built Black Classic Press into a four-decade archive of Black intellectual and literary history, republishing texts that would otherwise be lost.
