I had a really great conversation with journalist Davey D of Hard Knock Radio. We had a wide ranging that covered comics, nerd culture as tool for liberation and what this stuff meant to people of color. I had a blast. Peep the conversation here.
As a teacher of young adults of color what are some titles of comic books and graphic novels that you would suggest?
