African American woman, ph. Thomas Askew, ca. 1899

So I finally found a photography book depicting African American subjects on the cheap and it’s a really worthwhile purchase. I’ve had trouble in the past finding books like these but now that I’ve got some money saved up for a few nice buys I’d be willing to splurge on more. If anyone could direct me to books with portraiture specifically featuring POC (by photographers of color is a plus!), I’d really appreciate it :3
