Video Lecture on Race and Comics + Resources for Paper!

For this week, be sure to work on your Final Paper (see post below)! Here are some resources to help you, any or all of which you can use as sources for the paper itself. To start with, here's one final video over Race and Stereotypes in Comics (about 16 min.) which you don't have to respond to, but you can use in your paper--or just to give you food for thought. 

Secondly, here are some sources you might want to track down to give you more to respond to in your paper. Each one goes toward one of the paper options.
