Angela M. Sánchez, Pablo Leon, Diego Salazar Castro speak in conversation with Jen Hurler at Vroman’s Bookstore on Tuesday, September 16th at 7pm.
Comic art has long been used as an avenue to address social issues and has given voice to the marginalized groups through their stories and the artists who create them. As Hispanic Heritage Month begins in a tumultuous time with vulnerable Latinx communities being targeted by current US policies, this panel features comic creators whose work focuses on social commentary and bringing visibility to human rights issues and perspectives across the Latinx/e/a/o spectrum.
Featured books include From Cocinas to Lucha Libre Ringsides: A Latinx Comics Anthology and Silenced Voices: Reclaiming Memories from the Guatemalan Genocide.
