From Goodreads:

This sequel to the award-winning Dark Matter anthology features another extraordinary collection of speculative fiction by black writers. Like its groundbreaking predecessor, DARK MATTER: Reading the Bones, introduces black SF, fantasy, and speculative fiction writers to readers who may not have realized the depth and breadth of these works. This anthology includes original short fiction and previously published works from Charles Johnson, the National BookAward-winning author of Middle Passage; Tananarive Due; Walter Mosley; W.E.B. DuBois; Samuel R. Delaney; Nalo Hopkinson; Wanda Coleman; and many more. Containing approximately 30 stories, ranging from the early part of the 20th century through the most cutting-edge work of today, this is a powerful collection that will appeal to the culturally diverse audience of science fiction readers.
