What is The Black Age? It is Chicago’s Black Comic Book event, that began in 1993. Turtel Onli, known as the Father Of The Black Age, produces the annual event. I visited Chicago’s South Side Community Center in the historic Bronzeville area on Saturday, September 12th to attend The Black Age Of Comics.
There is an exhibition called “Heroes And Villains” on display from September 11th – November 8th. Then on October 10th and 17th, there will be workshops on the history and impact of the Black Age Movement. All of this will take place at the South Side Community Center, located at 3831 S. Michigan in Chicago. That’s really cool.
I interviewed several artists and writers. Please take a listen and leave a comment at the very bottom of the page. Thank you! 🙂
There is great art!
Wonderful interviews, great talent, keep up the good work young Zion.
Zion you’re so young, but so intelligent. I can’t wait to see what you do next. I loved the information you shared with us through these interviews.
Look out world, here comes Zion. I learned so much through these creative artists and Professors.
Ben, I was thinking the same thing. He interviewed students, those holding their doctorates, people right out of college and college/university Professors. You go Zion!!! People often look at comics in such a narrow minded way. Zion you exposed to us and the world how broad it really is.
I hope you go buy some comics, too!
Thanks for putting in all this great work to document the event, Zion. Always a pleasure to speak with an enthusiastic young artist!
This is a wonderful blog and Zion was a great interviewer. I am proud of him, and look forward to great things from him in the future!
