FREE TO BROWSE: The Internet as a Space of Survival for Trans Teens — and What Happens When That Space Disappears.
a graphic nonfiction project combining memoir and comics journalism
A comic artist (that’s me) collaborates with trans teens to talk about the internet.
This comics journalism project share a different perspective from all the fear-filled stories about the online world. For trans kids like my son and daughter, the internet has been a lifeline, and I want to bring their voices to light.
I hope it helps older people see and understand these kids — and shows other kids that they’re never truly alone.
