Maybe if we plan ahead and find interesting tributes this February, then Black History Month won’t just fade away this year. Here’s some interesting info about BN.com that we recently received from our inbox.

Barnes & Noble

The Barnes & Noble Studio will feature big names in February to celebrate Black History Month. Kicking off Wednesday, January 28th, a dedicated “Black History Month Channel” will feature
audio and video content including interviews, book trailers, and more, with authors including:

  • Maya Angelou (Letters to my Daughter)
  • Annette Gordon-Reed (The Hemingses of Monticello)
  • Toni Morrison (A Mercy)
  • Quincy Jones (The Complete Quincy Jones)
  • Randy Jackson (Body With Soul)
  • Tavis Smiley (Accountable: Making America As Good As Its Promise)

Among many others…

In a special February 2 episode of the Barnes & Noble Studio’s premiere Web series “Tagged!” (www.BN.com/Tagged), National Book Award winner Annette Gordon-Reed will discuss her books and give her top three reading recommendations for Black History Month.

Also, the in-store series “Upstairs at the Square” invites author Nikki Giovanni and hip-hop sensation Emmanuel Jal to the Barnes & Noble brick-and-mortar store in New York City on February 5. For those unable to attend the event, the reading and performance will be available to watch online at www.BN.com/Upstairs beginning February 6.
