Black Author Spotlight: Lambo Griffin

And almost exactly two years later, I'm back with another Black Author Spotlight! Maybe it's time for me to get this back up and running, yeah?

The goal of this segment is to highlight Black authors who are often marginalized and ignored in the publishing industry. Black writers usually turn to self-publishing--an already densely populated industry--to have their stories seen, and it is said that we have to work twice as hard to get half of what our white counterparts have. Hopefully, shining a little light on these authors will help to signal boost the work they are putting out there.

Today, I am highlighting Lambo Griffin. Lambo Griffin is an author, independent researcher, artist, and multidisciplinary creator based in Lawton, Oklahoma. His work connects memoir, philosophy, history, technology, civic research, and music. He is the author of The Archive, an experimental biography reconstructed through more than three years of conversations with AI, and History is Selective, a modern philosophy work examining how memory, evidence, power, and ownership shape what societies preserve.

Lambo's books released this month, and he is offering digital copies for review! Please reach out to him at dorianmartinsmith@gmail.com if you are interested in assisting him. You can also visit his website at https://dorianmartinsmith.wixsite.com/the-archive-1.
