Gladiolus Magazine has 138 black-and-white pages that feature 23 comics, essays, short stories, interviews and guides by 38 amazing creatives of color from marginalized genders and sexualities. Gladiolus Magazine was funded by a grant from Oolitearts and Miami Foundation. (I have an interview in this!)
"The Gift" is a 32-page color comic about ancestry and identity by award-winning writer Jamila Rowser (Wash Day Dairies) and artist Sam Wade (Stoke).
It also includes 10 bonus pages of process pages and an essay about the meaning and making of the comic. The comic follows 10-year-old Kenya and her father visiting an African art museum. At the museum, Kenya meets a mysterious visitor who takes her on an unexpected journey that leaves her with a new perspective on her roots.
