Race and Coming of Age Superhero Comics, TV, & Film
Description: This talk offers a sneak-peak into Aldama’s forthcoming, Race and Coming of Age Superhero Comics, TV, & Film—a book that focuses on different types of worldbuilding as shaped by and through a series of coming of age characters of color. Aldama unpacks how a series of bildung comic books create differently inflected ethnoracial pauses that wake reader-minds to the dazzlingly dynamic kinesis of consciousness of a panoply of teen protagonists of color.
