## Description

Nile Valley Books is an independent bookstore in Toronto’s east end, founded by Nohsakhere, who began by selling books at cultural events before opening the shop near Woodbine Avenue and Gerrard Street. The store serves readers through online sales, direct-to-home shipping, and contactless pickup at its Gerrard Street East location. Its carefully selected collection focuses on African, African-Canadian, and Caribbean histories and experiences, alongside literature, fiction, nonfiction, and new authors.

Customers can browse books for adults, children, and young adults, with dedicated collections covering anti-racism, social justice, Black women’s writing, African-American and African-Canadian authors, cooking, religion, Islam, and Canadian literature. The Marcus Garvey Collection features books on Garvey’s ideas and influence. Nile Valley Books also offers parent and teacher resources, children’s titles, and recommendations addressing race, class, violence, policing, and oppression. Its website highlights featured selections, new arrivals, and Nohsakhere’s personal picks, with products available to add to an online cart. The bookstore shares event information, including book launches, and welcomes customer inquiries by email or phone.
