Race, Equity, and Book Publishing
As of 2025 and also historically, the publishing industry of America is predominantly made up of white people. White people make up the majority of publisher positions and authors who get published. This is a problem because it doesn't accurately reflect the scope of race and cultures that exist in America's "Melting Pot."[1] In PEN America's article, "Reading Between the Lines,"[2] published in 2022, the article exposes the biased whiteness of the publishing industry and describes not only the problems authors of color face when attempting to get published, but employees of color as well in editorial spaces.
This is where Jono will talk about the PENN America article
Condemning the publishing industry
This is where Jono will use this interview to corroborate the Penn America claims with Bernadine Evaristo's claims and the DEI article.
