As we celebrate the incredible journey of long-standing businesses within our communities, it’s essential to reflect on the significant contributions they make to cultural richness and unity. Nia Damali, the owner of Medu Bookstore, has nurtured connections and provided a space for African American literature for over 35 years. Unfortunately, after a remarkable tenure, she has made the difficult decision to close her beloved bookstore, a pillar of community engagement and inspiration.

Medu was not just a shop; it was a haven where friendships blossomed and stories came to life, creating a vibrant ecosystem within the literary world. As Nia embarks on a new chapter, we wish her all the best in her endeavors.
