Topic: Pulitzer Prize
The Pulitzer Prize does not have a specific category for Black history. However, there have been instances where works related to Black history and African American experiences have been awarded the Pulitzer Prize in other categories. For example, historical non-fiction books on Black history, biographies of prominent Black figures, and works of journalism that address important issues related to Black communities have received Pulitzer Prizes in categories such as History, Biography, and Journalism. Some notable Pulitzer Prize-winning works related to Black history include "Parting the Waters: America in the King Years 1954-63" by Taylor Branch, "The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America's Great Migration" by Isabel Wilkerson, and "The Color Purple" by Alice Walker.
