Busy Being Black: Curated Highlights

By Josh Rivers

The selection of books on this page was curated by Josh Rivers, host and producer of ‘Busy Being Black‘ – the podcast exploring how we live in the fullness of our queer Black lives.

Busy Being Black is a growing compendium of queer Black voices, an oral history project and conversations with those who have learned – and are learning – to thrive at the intersections of their identities.
