Loving Room: Diaspora Books + Salon
Sacred Literary Sanctuary Dedicated to Black Ancestral Literature & Healing
Kristina Clark
About the Business
Loving Room: Diaspora Books + Salon was established by educator and community leader Kristina Clark. Following a decade of community literacy curation, Kristina opened Loving Room as a sacred sanctuary dedicated entirely to literature written by Black, African, and Afro-diasporic writers, honoring ancestral heritage and intergenerational healing.
Located on 20th Avenue in the heart of Seattle’s historic Central District, Loving Room serves as an intellectual and spiritual haven. Firmly anchored in Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.’s international focus on “Building Our Economic Wealth,” Kristina welcomes Sorors from Delta Upsilon Omega Chapter and book clubs across King County with dedicated reading spaces and member privileges.
Curating exceptional works in Black poetry, liberation pedagogy, womanist theory, speculative fiction, and children’s books, Loving Room is an inspiring community cornerstone during Seattle’s June Black Dollar Days. Book lovers are invited to visit the salon or purchase titles via their online bookstore.
