Black here, that's racist to say that
If the shoe fits
Oh don't be such a Black person.
Black person
yes
>Name a great book written by a black author
No can do.
This is an anonymous website. Trying to exploit your status as a racial minority is racist and not anonymous.
Dhalgren
It's about yams
Hated this book. Required reading for sophomore English. Teacher made us feel like idiots because a bunch of suburban Whites couldn't relate to bum frick Africa Black person shit
Filtered.
>yams are my manhood ooga booga
>noooo White man come on bicycle
>Black folk hangs himself from tree
Either you're a Black person or a Black person lover.
Maybe I’m misremembering, but didn’t things fall apart because of the white missionaries??? All I remember from the book for sure is when Okonkwo said it’s gay to be on the bottom during sex.

Frick all you illiterate racists, this is such an important book it's existence is even taught in middle school. I remember it, too.
Also this person is ACTUALLY black, yeesh:
dumas is black
He's mixed, 1/4 black IIRC. He more or less just looks like a white guy with an afro.
he*s black enough
>He more or less just looks like a white guy with an afro.
I hate Americans so much.
The feeling is mutual.
Carver was actually pretty cool
>Samuel R. Delaney isn't black

Don Quixote
The Divine Comedy

I'm sorry, I wouldn't know, I don't read anything by them
Baldwin has a couple
>be James Baldwin
>known for your incisive commentary on race and class issues in the United States
>write a novel
>it's about homosexuals in a gay bar in Paris
I wonder if anyone in Baldwin's own time saw that swerve coming.
I'm not sure, but there might be a Sowell book on economy that doesn't mention race/enthinicty, though a lot of them do.
Invisible Man. On some very surface level it's about race, but if that's all you take away from then you got filtered.
Seconding Invisible Man (Ellison) and your comment. A mighty book chooses a mighty theme. I almost didn't read Moby-Dick because I thought it was only about whales. Some books about race are only about that on the surface.
invisible man is the greatest work of any black author, with that being said while it's about more than just race alone, to say that it "isn't about race or racism" is wrong.
Also, Quincas Borba, Brás Cubas and The Alienist
Brás Cubas is black?

Babel-17

all of dostoievski books. slavs are not white
>not white = black
you're not white either you bad coon
Slavs are objectively white by any sensible definition. You could maybe argue that certain European looking West Asian groups like Georgians and Ossetians are "non-white" by some definitions, but I don't know any definition that make Slavs non-white unless you're applied some ridiculous Nazi standard like only NW Euros are white.
He said a great book. Dosto did not write a single good book, let alone a great one.
Delusional fricking mutt
The most culturally IQfyerate mutt
everyone below this comment is a Northern Ireland black and tan but more black than tan bad coon Black person
The Palm wine drinkard and his dead palm wine tapster in the heads town. I will now graciously accept your loss and allow to suck the cum out of my balls you midwit gay pussy.

The Autograph Man
Their Eyes Were Watching God
Thinking black authors are the ones obsessed with race is just further proof that IQfy doesn't read.
You obviously don't read since no one would willingly read the garbage you posted. Can't even spare enough brain cells to make a decent shitpost.
>Their Eyes Were Watching God
I guess it's fair to say it's mostly not about race... I think a few of Toni Morrison’s novels also fall into a similar category, like Jazz.
>The Colour Purple
That book is explicitly about slavery. I hope this was a shitpost otherwise you may have the reading comprehension of a toddler.
No, it fricking isn't, you clown. It's about a woman trying to escape from abusive relationships.
my (stolen) diary
Salvage the Bones. Ward does write about race but she's thankfully not obsessed about it. Instead StB is about ghosts, mythology, prophecy, violence and vision. Also warning, there's a pit bull in it she's cute (and by cute the thing is stealing shoes and ferociously barking at her own puppies on the first page).
homie that book fricking sucked.

Better, though you could just do .posts[].com and I'd throw perl -MHTML::Entities -pe 'decode_entities($_);' in there
The posthumous memoirs of Bras Cubas
In current times, can a colored writer even write something that doesn’t have to do with race without being skewered?
African Psycho
The Sundiata
Count of Monte Cristo
Macahdo de Asis unironically is one of the greatest writers out there
Why shouldn't they write about their history and experience?
Omeros was pretty good
I can't even name a white author who doesn't write about race or racism. I usually just see their names on the book cover, why would I know their ethnicity?
>Eugene Onegin
>Earthseed trilogy
Pushkin would have been “black” in America, but Russia didn’t have a ridiculous one-drop rule, so 1/8 black and 7/8 non-black == black
>black
>author
I feel like James Allen McPherson's stories were more about class than race, so I'd offer his collection Hue and Cry. Gold Coast in particular is outstanding.
The Flecktones are probably the most talented musical group of the last 40 years or so.
he wrote a really good book called the music lesson
alright to say it was well written is a little bit of an overstatement but as far as education/self improvement i got a lot out of it
indeed he did anon, and he has since written a sequel, pic related
he's an outstanding musician. i could practice for a million years and not get close.
>darkies
>literate
ofc it will be about racism if you read modernist shit, just read something about african spirituality

Pimp by Iceberg Slim
It's about crime, pimping, women. Race does come up, but only for like 2 paragraphs.
It's a book about a man who was redpilled by his own mother.
