Radio Interview

Radio Interview

Rob Schmidt  

Rob Schmidt, creator of the Peace Party comic book, and I were recently interviewed for a radio program out of Florida about Indigenous people in comic books and comic book mythology, in general. The show is called, "Beyond the Grassy Knoll," and while I'm not entirely sure what their website is all about, they certainly have a lot of theories...about everything.

However, the host was very polite and seemed to be genuinely interested in how Native people are portrayed in comics - plus, it was good to have a dialogue between Schmidt and myself.

Dialogue at Montclair Art Museum

Rob Schmidt  

Rob Schmidt (creator, Peace Party) and I have been invited you to speak as part of the programming in relation to the Montclair Art Museum ("MAM") exhibition Reflecting Culture: The Evolution of the American Super Hero.

The exhibition features a section on Native Americans in comic book both portraying stereotypical depictions, introduction of Native superheroes in main stream comics and the more positive educational models like Blue Corn Comics and others. This event will take place December 6, 2007. See the MAM website for more info.

Here is a PDF announcement of the event.
