I think my all-time fav works of black fiction are *Their Eyes Were Watching God* by Zora Neale Hurston and *Black Boy* by Richard Wright.

Jordan Peele, the director of *Get Out,* just edited an anthology of Black horror by Black writers, *Out There Screaming*. So I think that would be a cool place to find some authors’ names.
