About BLACKLIT

This isn’t merch. This is culture. BLACKLIT was forged in service to uplift Black authors, elevate Black-owned voices, and rewrite the narrative one book and one bold message at a time. Founded by an educator and fueled by a global community that shares our mission to close the literacy gap and increase representation, we create intentional gear that sparks conversation, drives visibility, and demands presence. Our products aren’t just for shelves: they make meaningful gifts, statements, and symbols of solidarity. We also welcome custom colors, designs, and partnership requests, and will do our best to accommodate your needs. Faire is how we’re placing this mission on more shelves in bookstores, galleries, university shops, and museums. When you carry BLACKLIT, you’re not just stocking products; you’re standing with purpose. Together, we can create visibility where it matters most.Read their story
