Stereotyped to the Margins: A History of Black Characters in Comic Books

Stereotyped to the Margins at SRJC
Mon, February 3, 2025, 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Join us at the Santa Rosa Junior College Multicultural Museum on Monday February 3, 2025 to celebrate the opening of a thought-provoking Black History Month show: Stereotyped to the Margins: A History of Black Characters in Comic Books. The exhibited pieces, curated by Dr. Eric Atkinson of the SRJC English department, invite the viewer to look through a critical, thoughtful, and open lens. The point and purpose of the exhibit is not to elicit shock or moral outrage, but simply to create a setting to examine culture and ourselves so that we can move forward by understanding the antiquated and fixed traditions, and hopefully creating new, helpful, and uplifting relations with the images of African Americans.

Exhibit runs through March 14th, 2025
