How many black cartoonists do you
know about? I know there are
black cartoonists, they just need
to be talked about in good terms
and expressed in the media more.
But anyways, here is what the
story is about concerning black
comics:



Comics page sit in is being done
to prove to whites that all black
comics are not alike.

This is to get rid of their
excuse: They will say that they
already have a cartoon by a black person.
But they are letting them know
all black people don't draw the
same.


These people mostly look at dogs,
children, famly,students, and minorities.
They see those cartoons as similar in
theme even though they are not. That's
why they look at them as interchangeable.


The "Comics Page Sit-In" is scheduled to take place on Feb. 10 with participants such as Bell, Cory Thomas (Watch Your Head), Lalo Alcaraz (La Cucaracha), Steve Bentley (Herb and Jamaal), Jerry Craft (Mama's Boyz), Charlos Gary (Working It Out

Although I don't read his comics enough, I do like Keith Knight's stuff.

A blog I frequent posted about him this week. I'd never heard of him before.

They need to show more black cartoonists
in the media, I
will add that.
