Oprah’s next chapter includes a book imprint that will tell stories the Christian media mogul believes need to be heard.

Oprah Winfrey has announced her own new book imprint and it will tell the story of 300 black heroic nurses.

She’s calling it “An Oprah Book,” Flatiron Books told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

Scheduled for a 2018 release, Maria Smilios’ “The Black Angels: The Untold Story of the Nurses Who Helped Cure Tuberculosis” showcases the women who helped prevent a public health crisis.

In a statement issued through Flatiron, Winfrey said “The Black Angels” was a story of heroism and achievement that “needed to be shared.” A division of Macmillan, Flatiron first announced in 2015 that it would work with Winfrey on a line of nonfiction books, personally selected by her.

The first release is Winfrey’s “Food, Health and Happiness” cookbook, which is coming out Jan. 3.
