Covering comic books, superhero comics, graphic novels and cartoon strips from the early 20th century to the present, the book explores the ways in which Black comic artists have grappled with such themes as the Black experience, gender identity, politics and social media. Black Comics: Politics of Race and Representation introduces students to such key texts as: The work of Jackie Ormes ; Black women superheroes from Vixen to Black Panther ; Aaron McGruder's strip The Boondocks."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 606 $aAfrican American cartoonists 606 $aAfrican Americans in popular culture 606 $aComic books, strips, etc$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aRace in literature 606 $2Graphic novels 615 0$aAfrican American cartoonists. 615 0$aAfrican Americans in popular culture. 615 0$aComic books, strips, etc.$xSocial aspects 615 0$aRace in literature. 676 $a741.5/973 702 $aHoward$b Sheena C. 702 $aJackson$b Ronald L.$f1970- 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910965167603321 996 $aBlack comics$94340118 997 $aUNINA
