Pambazuka publishing?
I find the articles and news summaries published by Pambazuka News very insightful, informative and educational. I wish an African publishing company could get formed that would tap into the rich African writing/poetry that exists, but doesn't see the light of the day unless it's published by the Macmillan’s and/or Heinmann’s of this world. Why can't Pambazuka News start an African publishing house just as they started this very useful website and/or engage ghost writers to help African writers tell their stories.
Pambazuka News replies: Thanks for your letter and the suggestion. You're right, there is a gap for publishing the work of talented writers. Feel free to send us your work and we'll consider publishing it on our site. Fahamu, the publishers of Pambazuka News, is currently reviewing plans for publishing books and other materials from Africa. Watch this space!
