청소년들에게 만화는 매우 효율적인 교육 도구이다. 왜 이 멋진 도구가 여전히 우리나라에서는 저평가 받는지 안타까울 따름이다. #TED #graphicrecording #tedmanhattan #geneyang #cartoon #낙서 #doodle #kimkiyoung #sketchnotes

Security and freedom exist in a delicate balance.

Unfortunately, this world is an inherently unsafe place, so many dangers, so much to fear. No matter how hard we try, we can never keep our children completely safe. Better to teach them - and ourselves - to see the fear with unclouded eyes.

Your past lives can only advise you from the perspectives of our life histories, based on our own triumphs and failures. As the Avatar, you must find balance. Not just between the spirit and the human, but between the past and present, between us and you.

I forgot that my copy of American Born Chinese was signed by Gene Yang. #americanbornchinese #aas #geneyang

So I just read The Shadow Hero by Gene Yang and Sonny Liew for the second time now.  Honestly, its one of the best books I’ve read in a very long time.

In a nutshell, Gene and Sonny tell the story of the very first Asian American Superhero, The Green Turtle!  It was such a fun and rewarding read.

Gene and Sonny make light of many of the issues that surrounded a Golden Age hero of color.  And do it in a fun light hearted way that still teaches lessons.

I really can’t recommend this book enough.

So I had to throw together this quick sketch.  Wait’ll you see how Sonny draws him though.  Wow.

You can get it through amazon HERE.
