afro-american crime novels, both written by

afro-americans and by white writers with an afro-

american detective/or whatever.

The most well known writers I, also, know about

but any suggestions would be very welcome. Please!

Hi... I am just a new lurker around here but this is something I know a little
about...
The first author I would suggest would be probably the most obvious...Chester
Himes.
Other than that... check out this website
http://gak.webring.com/cgi-bin/navcgi?ring=sinccolor;list
It is for Sisters In Crime Outreach to Authors of Color
It has Bios for several african american female mystery writers.
Hope this Helps
