The Reading in the Gutter team is [finally] back! In this episode, Laura, Ashley, and Dani discuss superheroes and superhero comics with Dr. Francisco Torres. Francisco shares his experiences teaching a unit called "Heroes of Color" in which students read and discussed mainstream superhero comics that also featured diverse individuals and experiences. After reading and discussing these comics, students created their own comics around issues of social justice that mattered to them and were relevant to their lives.
