# BEM | books & more - **Website:** - **Primary alias:** `bembrooklyn.com` - **Founded:** 2021 - **Employees:** 2+ - **Location:** New York, United States - **Company kind:** PRIVATELY HELD ## Description BEM | books & more is a Black- and woman-owned business founded by Gabrielle & Danielle Davenport in Brooklyn, NY. Our brand celebrates and promotes the rich intersection of food and literature within the African diaspora. As sisters with a deep appreciation for our grandmothers' influences, we fold the love for food, books, and diverse cultures into our bookstore. At BEM, we believe that food opens doors to life, sustenance, love, and politics. We invite you to join our community as we embark on this journey together. In our online store, you will find a curated selection of brilliant books that explore the culinary traditions, stories, and histories of the African diaspora. We envision growing our team, launching products in collaboration with artists and makers, and becoming a hub for scholarship on foodways. While some titles may challenge traditional notions of food literature, we embrace flexibility and value the centrality of even a single food moment or metaphor. We are proud to share BEM | books & more and look forward to reading, eating, and cooking with you. Connect with us on social media or reach out at getintouch@bembrooklyn.com.
