Bokafrica Books Today

Perhaps the most vital work Bokafrica Books does is in preservation. Their collection of bilingual children’s books (English/Zulu, French/Wolof, Arabic/Amharic) ensures that the next generation of African children sees themselves as heroes of their own stories.

It would be disingenuous to ignore the challenges. Bokafrica Books operates in a difficult environment. Shipping physical books across African borders is expensive due to infrastructure gaps. Credit card penetration is low, requiring complicated mobile money integration. Furthermore, intellectual property theft remains a concern with PDF piracy.

However, the team behind Bokafrica Books is resilient. They are currently piloting a "Community Distribution Network" where local barbershops, cafes, and churches act as pickup points for book orders, bypassing traditional postal services.

Bokafrica Books is not just a website; it is a movement. Every quarter, they host the "Boka Literary Salon" – a virtual event streamed live from different cities across the continent. Past events have featured conversations from a rooftop in Kigali, a bookshop in Bulawayo, and a beachside cafe in Dakar. bokafrica books

These events are free to attend, and recordings are available exclusively to members. It humanizes the authors and creates a sense of shared space for the African diaspora and allies worldwide.
