Mission Statement

As a vital part of the larger nonprofit, Americas for Conservation and the Arts, Mandel Vilar Press's mission is advancing diversity and conservation in book publishing by bringing underrepresented and diverse literature of the Americas to the larger English speaking readership. MVP serves as a conduit of multicultural exchange and its availability plays a vital role in maintaining a healthy and vibrant democracy. With this end in mind, MVP focuses its book publication program on books both written by minority writers and books about minorities--using minorities in the widest sense of this term.
