Graphic Policy Radio

In a very special episode, we chat with comic book creators Spencer Toyama and Jon Lewis about their Kickstarter Project Home of the Brave. "Aria Monfort is a child born in a fictional America suffering from extreme poverty.  They’ve combined elements of contemporary graphic design and traditional illustration to build this world and tell Aria’s story in the form of a 135 page graphic novel." Pop culture can make a difference. We're going to chat with the two creators about this project and their idea to spotlight the issue of poverty and slavery in a comic book.
