She is an avid reader who acquired the love for writing at a young age.
Shakir Publishing is the culmination of Toni's dream of bringing awareness to critical stories throughout the world and being a voice for those who are often unheard. She has recently ventured into the film industry as a producer on the film adaptation of Land Of No Pity, written and directed by her stepson, Asim Jamal Shakir Jr. The film is slated to become a tv series in 2021.
Toni's debut novel, Land Of No Pity, introduced the world to her ground-breaking style of storytelling, that entrenched the mainstream into the gritty gang culture of South Central Los Angeles in a qualitative and poignant way. Her follow-up sequel, Land Of No Pity II: The Lost Generation, is the long awaited continuation of the saga readers have been highly anticipating.view less
