Veterans have a special place in our Native nations and this month’s book has a place for them in the pages of the comics. “Tales of the Mighty Code Talkers, Volume 1” explores the lives of code talkers from World War I through Korea. It’s a blending of the creativity of nine Indigenous artists and writers using the graphic novel concept to let the history unfold. We invite you to join us as we visit with some of the artists from the book.
Guests:
Lee Francis IV (Pueblo of Laguna) – National director of Wordcraft Circle of Native Writers and Storytellers Native Realities Publishing
Arigon Starr (Kickapoo/Muscogee Creek/Cherokee/Seneca) – actor, writer, musician and creator of Super Indian
Roy Boney Jr. (Cherokee)
Break music: Code Talker (song) Radmilla & Herman Cody (artist) Shi Kéyah (album)
