For the first time, we now know how many Black-owned bookstores exist in the U.S. The National Association of Black Bookstores has released the “first comprehensive national report” on the state of America’s Black-owned bookstores.

There has never been an official, comprehensive record of Black-owned bookstores across the United States — until now

Reposting in honor of #BHM and black boy joy at any age

Everyone in the world comes to get married at the NYC Marriage Bureau. Last week, the Mayor stopped by to officiate a few of those ceremonies. 
 
Thank you to all the couples who shared their joy with us. Happy Valentine's Day, New York.

gorgeous!

‘The Talking Cloth’ by Frances Featherstone is a masterclass in painting textiles and fabric! I’m just obsessed with how wonderfully cozy this looks!

Last nights episode has still left me at a loss for words, in the best way. It was everything. This season has been everything. This is all that we’ve been asking for. I truly don’t know how the rest of the season is going to go when it’s been only 6 episodes and THIS good already 🔥 #TheRookie

It was a great episode. Funny, romantic, all the cast interacting. The tree covering his face till the last moment? So good. #willtrent #TVsky

Ormewood trying to tell Faith he's sorry her guy turned out to be cold blooded killer and thief. #WillTrent #TVsky

I continue to like Angie now that she and Will aren't on the trauma train together. They really dragged each other down. #WillTrent #TVsky

Also Franklin and the Captain's shenanigans were cute. I do think it's wild that Franklin saw the body bag and still came into the office -- like he might help bury a body under the right circumstances. #WillTrent #TVsky

Like even though I ship Faith and Ormewood I was lowkey happy for her that she bagged this handsome millionaire that was treating her well. I feared HIS secret would be that he was married, when or before he learned she'd been lying. But this is so much worse. #WillTrent #TVsky

Super clever writing. Faith's bad dates, her choice not to tell him she was cop, using a fake name. She accidentally went undercover without trying. #WillTrent #TVsky

I was NOT prepared for Malcolm to be tattoo guy! Like I was thrown by the fact that he owns legit businesses. Why is he still even doing jobs like that? So many questions! #WillTrent #TVsky

And then when Ormewood asked if Will thought Faith was happy with this new guy? And Will emphatically ssaid "yes"? #WillTrent #TVsky

Will and Amanda were teasing Faith in a familial way -- her annoying brother and her auntie. Not Ormewood. From the beginning it was about her not "sleeping at home". #WillTrent #TVsky

"No one gave you permission to build this weird fort....This isn't a Snickers." "Snickers is D4.""I hate it here. I hate you." #WillTrent

That was really out of character #WillTrent

Now that 2026 is here at least there's a ton of new or returning good television. The Rookie, Will Trent, new #StarTrek, The Hunting Party, From... #TVsky

The s2e2 of #TheHuntingParty was better than the premiere -- by a lot. #TVsky

Yes! I want to know what the Colonel did before she "graduated" from the program. Was this just a military program that got altered for prison use or vice versa? #TheHuntingParty #TVsky

I had no idea, huh! #TheHuntingParty

I thought that too - and then! #TheHuntingParty

yes #TVsky #theHuntingParty

Just remember it is about escaped serial killers -- so no light frothy episodes 🙃
