Ellison is based. His short stories are bizarre and hilarious, like Malcolm X meets Kafka. There's one about a brother who torches his Cadillac because he realises that whites don't even consider them luxury cars just a nigger's laughable idea of luxury. He also tries to shame a white-looking black senator who's career is predicated on the image he projects as a white racist. He has other good ones, and Juneteenth isn't bad. He's also just a talented writer, especially for an American. Anyway, any publishing house willing to publish based on racial inclusion would absolutely realise works by Ellison, Morrison and Angelou were by black people since they very obviously concern themselves with either black characters and concerns and so this bullshit scenario would never play out.
