Hinton Publishing is doing the work that the literary world has long needed — actively seeking out, uplifting, and publishing Black, Brown, Indigenous, and historically underrepresented authors whose voices have been deliberately pushed to the margins.
Hinton Publishing plans to launch a youth employment program that brings young people directly into the publishing process — from manuscript review to event planning to literary eMagazine coordination — creating a real pathway into an industry that has historically locked them out.
They will also be hosting community book clubs where authors lead the conversations about their own work, building the kind of authentic literary community that doesn't just consume stories but is shaped by the people who lived them. This is literature as liberation — and it's happening right here in Seattle.
Estelita's Library is honored to serve as Hinton Publishing's fiscal sponsor, which means your donation is fully tax-deductible. Give today and invest directly in the writers, the young people, and the stories that deserve to be told.
