ales kot – Tumblr Exodus

aleskot:

Really happy about the increasing quality and honesty of critical discourse in comics in relation to racism and queerness

African-American writers, artists, comics creators: I’ve got something special coming up and I suspect you’ll be pleased.

I want to expose more new and/or underutilized African-American talent to editors, comics companies, readers & I believe I have a way.

I’ve done it on nearly every issue of Zero – every issue a new artist, usually under-seen. Many got new offers, new possibilities opened up

Now it’s time to do it again, in another way, for people who remain severely under-seen and sometimes actively erased by our society.

And by the comics industry as well.

I’m looking forward to telling you more next week. I’m excited. I believe what I’m doing is sorely needed.

White comics creators: MAKE. MORE. SPACE.
