First Person Press is creating a bold space for diasporic voices in nonfiction writing.

We are championing authentic lived experiences to counterbalance persistent generalizations in traditional nonfiction literature. By exploring topics ranging from untold histories to present-day social justice movements, we are offering fresh ways to look at our collective story.

First Person Press is aimed at middle-grade through university-level students, and speaks to present and future generations of socially conscious learners.
