We’re hosting a participatory workshop in partnership with&nbsp;Sussex Bay&nbsp;to explore our collective relationship with water — from coast to community. This session will bring people together to share lived experience, local knowledge, and ideas that can help shape a more inclusive, connected, and resilient future for Sussex’s coastline. No expertise required — just curiosity, care, and a willingness to contribute. Water connects us all. This is a space to be heard, to listen, and to shape what comes next. **This event is exclusively for individuals that identify as a person of colour** Book tickets <a href="https://www.tickettailor.com/events/barco/2057014" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>

Afrori was born from frustration. Our founder, Carolynn Bain, was tired of going to bookstores and having to search for ages to find the tiny 'BAME' section that had been allocated to black authors.&nbsp;Surely, they deserved more than that? It is hard to become an author, it is even harder to be a black author.As a book lover it would take&nbsp;Carolynn days, sometimes even weeks, to find a book by a black author. It was hard to find all the genres I liked and impossible to get personal recommendations for of any of these books.So here at Afrori Books we started to ask some big questions.What if we could get the biggest book wholesaler in the country to partner with us? What if we could build a site and provide a platform to sell black authors books at reasonable prices?What if we could put together a crack team to spend months searching for books by black authors in every genre possible?And we did&nbsp;exactly that.We have created a bookstore with the largest wholesaler in the country, offering our customers one of the biggest selection of books, by black authors, in one place. We are the home for black authors. Your one stop shop for great books by black authors.
