On Jan. 30 I stood with other members of the press as we watched hundreds of peaceful protesters gather at the downtown Eugene Federal Building. Things soon devolved into chaos as federal agents deployed tear gas and flash bangs into the crowd.

Read Eugene Weekly’s graphic designer McKenzie Young-Roy’s illustrated journal of the night’s events in Eugene Weekly.

Book 18: “Palestine” by #JoeSacco.

Felt I needed to read this with everything going on. Also took a workshop on #ComicsJournalism, which apparently Sacco pioneered? One of the conventions is that the author inserts themself into both the narrative and the drawings—there’s no pretense of objectivity or an attempt at invisibility. I didn’t like Sacco’s unvarnished sexism and Western bias. But even 40 years from publication, this taught me a lot.

VOA is dipping into #ComicsJournalism. The five-part illustrated series “Confronting ‘Morality’” depicts women of #Iran who share their encounters with the morality police. It has been translated into Farsi, Dari, Pashto, Kurdish and Kurmanji with more languages possibly to come. https://projects.voanews.com/iran/confronting-morality-women-under-the-islamic-republic/nilu.html

Oggi apprendo con tristezza della chiusura di "The Nib", la rivista di comics journalism di Matt Bors che ha dato spazio a tanti bravissimi autori, vincendo anche premi Eisner. Fino al 31 agosto da qui si può scaricare l'intero archivio delle pubblicazioni.

La storia di "The Nib" l'ho scritta in questa pubblicazione accademica che ripercorre la storia di varie riviste di giornalismo a fumetti in Italia, Francia e USA.

2022: esce il primo numero de "La Revue Dessinée Italia", a cui auguriamo tutto il successo editoriale che merita.

Entrambe le esperienze nascono dal binomio di passione e autoproduzione.
