Must-Read Classics by People of Color - Page 2

For the purposes of this list, I've defined a classic as a book that's at least 50 years old. Some of these classics by people of color are well-known and others are known only to scholars of the period they're from. There are novels, plays, poetry, and nonfiction from around the world—something for everyone.
