Naima Coster is an Afro-Dominican writer who resides in the illustrious Fort Greene neighborhood in Brooklyn. Coster’s first novel, 2018’s Halsey Street, was lauded for its interrogation of the dynamics of race, family, and class; and her forthcoming novel, What’s Mine and Yours, releasing in 2021, will explore these similar themes in the context of school integration. Coster’s intersectional identity as a Black and Dominican woman living in the United States is a central component of her writing, and readers all of identities will gain new perspectives and find wisdom in the way she uses the family to explore intersectionality in America.
