Strive Publishing's vision is to be the leading publishing company in providing contemporary African American stories. We will begin by filling the need for picture books and young adult novels that our children can see themselves in, and will work toward filling the need for African American adult representation in other genres. Through publishing and illuminating the stories of creativity, wonder, determination, and success of generations of African Americans, we will help tear down stereotypes and build up bridges that connect to a more diverse publishing industry.
