A deluge of books on Obama, African-American, Slavery

After the Obama victory, it seems any bookshop worth its name must have countless books on Obama and the African American.
A good example is Bookpoint Nairobi. I was there three days ago and counted close to 30 titles on Obama, Michelle, the African-American, slavery name it.
I'm on my second book on the same topic. This time it is Booker T. washingtom autobiography, Up from Slavery.
It is quite a read - more engagig and uplifting than the earlier one...
