Celebrating powerful voices- Represent! collects the revolutionary digital-first series!

Celebrating powerful voices- Represent! collects the revolutionary digital-first series!

New voices present relevant, topical visions of social change and

personal histories, some true-to-life while others are

semi-fictionalized accounts of real experiences.

Jules, a Black teenager, is given a pair of old binoculars as he

heads out for a morning of birdwatching in Central Park. He soon learns

the binoculars show him a lot more than birds, and maybe they keep him

safe, too.

Jesse Holland's Mississippi farm has been in his family since their

first ancestor was freed from slavery, tended by his grandfather and his

father before him. But as Jesse grows into a man, he's unsure if a

patch of land in the Piney Woods and a life of tilling soil is his true

destiny. But destiny can mean so much more than dirt and a tractor. Lanice's

passion for cooking and desire for a career in the culinary arts are

challenged by the source of her inspiration, her father, who is

concerned about his only daughter working in a kitchen, like so many

Black Americans before her.

These stories and more all have one thing in common- innovative styles and compelling stories that examine how our culture builds understanding, tracing society's arc toward justice as we evolve in pursuit of a more just and compassionate world.

This graphic novel collects Represent! #1-14.
