First, I came across an article in The Guardian: “'I stuck my foot in the door': what it is like to be black in UK publishing”  and that led me to the report on diversity in publishing called “Rethinking ‘Diversity’ in Publishing”

The report then made me wonder about the books by non-white authors I have read and whether and/or to what extent they are conforming to the white, middle-class readers’ supposed perception of what a non-white author should be writing about.
