Erased No More: A Reading List of BIPOC-Centered Historical FictionAuthor Vanessa Miller presents a curated reading list of BIPOC-centered historical fiction, highlighting novels by authors like Sadeqa Johnson, ReShonda Tate, and Vanessa Riley that reclaim the voices and stories of marginalized historical figures. The piece discusses how these works illuminate various dimensions of equality—cultural, economic, artistic, personal, and legal—and connects them to Miller's own novel, The Ladies Hall, which draws from trailblazers like Mary Church Terrell and Anna Julia Cooper.bsky·Jun 28, 2026
