Title: We are not white lesbians
Description: "My boyfriend and I used to get confused for white lesbians a lot, even though he's a transgender man, and I'm a mixed-race woman of color. This collection of comics illustrates some of the challenges we face in the world as members of different marginalized communities, and how our relationship is the one place we can be ourselves and be fully understood." -- Nia King's website, accessed 5/28/2014 Nia King, a mixed-race artist and activist, makes comics about her relationship with her trans male boyfriend and the struggle of being a woman of color artist in the mostly white art world. Some of the content is reprinted from Colorlines and an interview she gave.
