Annual LTPB Diversity Audit: June 2021 - May 2022

Two years ago, I started an annual diversity audit of Let's Talk Picture Books for representation of BIPOC creators and illustrators via the interviews and reviews on this site. Here are this year's results:


And here are previous years' numbers for comparison:

  

BIPOC representation continues to rise here on the site. Representation across both interviews and reviews went up 9%, reviews of books by BIPOC creators stayed exactly the same, and interviews with BIPOC illustrators went up 30% from last year.

I look forward to finding more beautiful books by BIPOC creators this coming year and sharing them with you all here.
