2023 Locus award win

So I and my co-editors, Sheree Renee Thomas and Zelda Knight won 2023 the Locus award, for best anthology, with Africa Risen: A New Era of Speculative Fiction. This will make me the first African editor to win the Locus award, and the first African born-Black person to. You can see my acceptance speech here

The Africa Risen anthology, published by Tor – Macmillan, has been a finalist, for the NAACP Image awards. It got Booklist and
Publishers Weekly starred reviews, and reviews from Library Journal, Scientific American, and made the Book Riot, Polygon and New Scientist best books of the year. You can get it here in all formats
