Book 29: “Blackward” by #LawrenceLindell.

Four friends try to create a space for themselves and those like them: Black, weird, and queer. But they have to deal with Hoteps, preachy aunties, and their own insecurities. Funny and real.

I took a virtual workshop on memory comics with Lindell during lockdown. We focused on emotional memory and drew a 1-page comic about a specific feeling. Mine was: murderous! And humiliated.
