Sinossi

Biographical Comics explores the captivating world where history and biography meet visual storytelling. It examines how the lives of historical figures are adapted into graphic form, highlighting the unique power of comics to engage readers and offer accessible insights into the past. The book delves into the challenges of portraying historical narratives accurately in a visual medium and emphasizes the ethical considerations involved in representing real people and events.

 
Did you know that comics can foster empathy and understanding in ways traditional biographies sometimes struggle to achieve? Or that this medium is particularly effective for reaching diverse audiences, including younger readers?

 
This book progresses by first introducing the core concepts of biographical representation and graphic storytelling. It then delves into specific case studies, analyzing how different creators have approached adapting biographical material, focusing on figures from scientists to political leaders. These case studies evaluate the historical accuracy and artistic interpretation of each work.

 
Finally, Biographical Comics considers the broader implications of graphic biographies as a tool for education and cultural understanding, offering a comprehensive overview valuable to students, scholars, educators, and anyone interested in the intersection of biography and visual culture.

  • Ride or Die - A Feminist Manifesto for the Well-Being of Black Women - cover

    Ride or Die - A Feminist...

    Cultural criticism and pop culture history intertwine in this important book, which dissects how hip hop has sidelined Black women's identity and emotional well-being.    Do you have a “ride or die chick” in your life? A “ride or die chick” is a Black woman who holds down her family and community. She’s that friend or family member that you can call up in the middle of the night to bail you out of jail, if ever needed, and you know she’ll show up and won’t ask any questions. She does anything for her family, friends, and significant other, even at the cost of her own well-being. “No” is not in her vocabulary. She’s beloved by you and many others, but her ride or die trope becomes a problem when she does it indiscriminately. Her self-worth is connected to how much labor she can provide for others. She goes above and beyond for everyone in every aspect of her life—work, family, church, and often it’s not reciprocated, and a “ride or die chick” doesn’t require it to be because she’s a “strong Black woman.” To her, love should be earned, and there’s no limit to what she’ll do for it.   In this book, author, adjunct professor of sociology, and former therapist, Shanita Hubbard disrupts the “ride or die” complex, and argues that this way of life has left Black women exhausted, overworked, overlooked, and feeling depleted. She suggests that Black women are to susceptible this mentality because it’s normalized in our culture. It rings loud in our favorite hip-hop songs, and it even shows up in the most important relationship we will ever have—the one with yourself.   Compassionate, candid, hard-hitting, and 100% unapologetic, Ride-or-Die melds Hubbard’s entertaining conversations with her Black girlfriends and her personal experiences as a redeemed “ride-or-die chick” and a former “captain of the build-a-brother team” to fervently dismantle cultural norms that require Black women to take care of everyone but themselves.  Ride or Die urges you to expel the myth that your self-worth is connected to how much labor you provide others, and guides you toward healing. Using hip hop as a backdrop to explore norms that are harmful to Black women, Hubbard shows the way you may be unknowingly perpetuating this harm within your relationships. Hubbard urges you to pull the plug on the “ride or die chick.”
