Comics are at the forefront of talking about race and ethnicity. Here’s how they’re doing it:
Diverse Characters: For example, in Ms. Marvel, we meet Kamala Khan. She is a Muslim teenager who is trying to figure out her identity while also being a superhero.
Cultural Stories: In Black Panther, the story explores African culture and its people around the world. It highlights Black culture in a positive way.
Different Identities: America Chavez shows what it’s like to be both Latinx and LGBTQ+. This helps to include more people in the conversation.
Through these stories, comics do more than just entertain. They also help us talk about and understand race and ethnicity better.
