We talk to three queer cartoonists about what the medium represents for them. Cartoons have always dealt with the subversive but our guests today share with us how identity politics – questions of gender, race, class, sexuality – find an arena for exploration and expression through this medium. Jennifer Camper, who recently completed the second book in her Juicy Mother series joins Carlo Quispe, currently a teacher at the Hetrick-Martin Institute/Harvey Milk School in NYC. And on the line from the West Coast, Erika Lopez, author, artist, performer and self-described Welfare Queen who’s bringing her show to the East Coast this coming Thursday at The Bronx Academy of Arts and Dance here in New York City.
