In honor of #IndigenousPeoplesDay (and, uh, #ColumbusDay), here's the link to my exclusive interview with Gord Hill, the writer and artist of "The 500 Years Of Indigenous Resistance Comic Book: Revised And Expanded" 📖🎨

Oka Crisis

The “Oka Crisis” is one of a half dozen 4-page Indigenous history comics written and drawn by Native artist and militant Gord Hill, writing under the pseudonym Zig-Zag. Not only do I love the simplicity of the art, but also that they were consciously designed to tell essential, yet sadly mostly suppressed, histories on a double-sided 11”x17” sheet of paper. This makes them extremely easy for anyone to reproduce—just take your copy, through it on a copy machine, and make dozens more. These comics (and a lot of other Zig-Zag material) were reproduced in book form as The 500 Years of Resistance Comic Book (http://www.arsenalpulp.com/bookinfo.php?index=317).
