Show Notes

Comics allow us to imagine possessing superpowers and life on other planets. What if you borrow that medium … to tell about powerful experiences and life in other cultures? That’s what artist and journalist Malaka Gharib does in her graphic novel: 'I Was Their American Dream' - about growing up in a Filipino-Egyptian household.

Nguyen Khoi Nguyen created the indie comic series 'The Gulf.' It chronicles the struggles and triumphs of a Vietnamese-American family.
