Will I burn to a crisp if I leave the house rn y/n #LAHeatWave
Update: It is awful out, but also it isn't that bad! I am used to humid heat! Dry heat and no shade is what I can't deal with.
FEELS LIKE HOME OUT THERE

Time to shout out the team! Thank you everyone at NBF! Especially @annadobben for fearlessly navigating pandemic submissions and deliberations. @LOLBev for a BEAUTIFUL rollout. @meredithandrews for getting everything up online and out and many acts of heroism.
And @DhyanaTaylor, without her, nothing I do is possible. Nothing.
And, of course, thanks to the whole Team and our interns for pinch hitting on Awards when needed and being absolutely fucking amazing.

A quick note on the NBAs and NBF!
Are you digging the Longlists? (We hope so!) 25 judges reviewed over 1700 books DIGITALLY from April to present.

As the third-generation of Black women in my family to graduate from the University of Chicago... I can say with some pretty deep familiarity with the students, the culture and the curriculum: thank friggin' goodness.
Only glancingly related, but I will never ever ever forget that there were only 7 Black men (!) in a class of 1000 in the year 1997. Maybe 15 Black women? Trifling!
