Visual Storytelling & Marginalized Voices: A Comic Workshop

Palestinian graphic novelists Marguerite Dabaie and Iasmin Omar Ata will discuss how their comics and illustration work address issues of identity, memory, history, and diaspora. Then, they will lead participants through a hands-on comics workshop. Participants will create miniature, biographical comic zines, and learn about the power of self-publishing as a tool to push forward marginalized voices and perspectives.
