"Founded by Bryant Terry as an imprint within a major publishing ecosystem, this imprint is designed to give BIPOC creators creative control and the resources of a large publisher—editors, stylists, distribution—while trusting authors' cultural expertise and audience knowledge. Modeled on the logic of independent hip-hop labels that paired cultural insight with major-label support, it focuses on creating space for BIPOC chefs, writers, artists, and activists to publish nonfiction work and aims to correct long-standing publishing blind spots by staying attuned to current and emerging cultural zeitgeists." - Nicole Rufus
