Anti-Blackness in the publishing industry, by the numbers (most data pulled from our Diversity Baseline Survey, blog.leeandlow.com/2020/01/28/201…): Traditionally published authors: 5% Black. (This is on the children's book side, according to 2018 statistics from the @CCBCwisc. No comprehensive data on the adult side that we know of)
