In this groundbreaking novel, The Blacker the Berry delves into the complex intersection of race, identity, and colorism within the Black community. The story follows Emma Lou Morgan, a young woman struggling with her own internalized racism as she navigates a world where lighter skin is often seen as more desirable. Emma Lou’s journey from self-loathing to self-acceptance is a raw and poignant exploration of the pain that comes with being judged by the color of one’s skin—not only by society at large but by those within one’s own community.

First published anonymously in 1912, The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man became one of James Weldon Johnson’s most famous works, and remains a testament to the lives and experiences of both Johnson and his peers. Although primarily a work of fiction, The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man offers many parallels with the life of Johnson himself. Set shortly after the Civil War, this powerful fictional memoir recounts the life of a biracial man, grappling with questions around identity, race and justice.
