About this Event

Blasian March proudly presents ou 2026 Blasian March Book Fair! Join us for 1-5 PM at Immigrant Social Services in Manhattan's Chinatown as we give away FREE BOOKS from Black, Asian, and Blasian authors to build solidarity through storytelling!

The Blasian March is a Black-Asian solidarity organization that builds community through art, education, and activation. The free books at the fair, for all ages and of all genres, are from Black, Asian, and Blasian authors that tell our histories on this stolen land, struggles against white supremacy, and ideas for collective liberation. Since its inception in 2022, the book fair has distributed thousands of books to thousands of people in New York City, Sacramento, and Orlando, with an emphasis on banned books. The action includes community resources all day, performances at 3 PM, and a panel at 4 PM.

If you have the capacity, please donate here so that we can pay our artists, speakers, and purchase books from Black- and Asian-owned bookstores in New York City!
