How we ensure all voices get heard, with Black British Book Festival founder Selina Brown

Why does it matter that all voices get a chance to be heard and how can we all play a part in helping that to happen? 
 
In the landscape of literature, diversity isn’t just a buzzword—it's essential for a richer, more vibrant cultural narrative. 

As Selina Brown, founder & CEO of the Black British Book Festival, attests, representation in literature profoundly benefits readers and society at large. 

She believes in the power of showcasing the written word by Black voices and provides a platform for emerging talent historically underrepresented in the literary world.

Growing from strength to strength the British Black Book Festival is the biggest in Europe and is setting the stage for a better world. 

History doesn’t have to determine the present, and the future for all voices is in our hands.
