Video game - 2023

A Mellon Sawyer Seminar. Roundtable with Qiana Whitted, Natalia Hernandez and Darieck Scott. This seminar brings diverse individuals, institutions, and organizations together to critically explore the overarching theme of “Racial Reckoning through Comics,” through a series of events designed to address racial and ethnic representation in global popular culture as both a historical legacy and ongoing concern, with the latter emphasis allowing us to explore and celebrate the vital work of diverse contemporary creators from around the world who are revising past injustices to make emphatically anti-racist comics. Co-sponsored by The Mellon Foundation, Iowa City Public Library, the Obermann Center for Advanced Studies, and FilmScene.
