    My name is Nzingha Nommo,  I've been in business over 27 years as owner/Founder of Afriware Books, Co.  Thought I could share a few things along the way that may be of use to others thinking about or currently in the book business, or, just looking for their next great read.  I also dabble in veganism, natural hair and other odds and ends.  Learn more on our About Us page.
