GULFPORT, Miss. (AP) Inside a little office in downtown Gulfport, Tonisha Kimble is writing a new chapter in Mississippi’s history of Black-owned book stores.
Kimble opened the Wonders of the World Book and Toy Store space earlier this month, after years in business as an online vendor. The shop displays comics, picture books like “Freedom We Sing,” and notebooks Kimble designed herself, including one with the Audre Lorde quote “Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.”
Her shop joins a handful of Black-owned book stores in Mississippi.

The next chapter
By Reuters Published: Apr 22, 2021 09:18 PM The histories, poems and novels were all there, lining the shelves of some of the best known black-owned and activist bookstores in the US.
