MaThoko’s Books is the publishing imprint of Gay and Lesbian Memory in Action (GALA). Launched in 2011, the imprint aims to be a corrective to the limited publishing support for queer writing in Africa and to act as a springboard for emerging and marginalised voices. It also provides a muchneeded publishing outlet for scholarly works on LGBTIQ-related themes. MaThoko’s Books was founded on a belief that the sharing of stories can help to challenge homophobia and transphobia. The imprint is committed to publishing high-quality writing that not only helps to educate the public about sexuality and gender identity but that also promotes human rights on the African continent.
