Member of Two Tribes Comic Image from National Parks with the word Zion crossed out and the native word Oawingwa written in red

As the artist describes, "I draw memoir-style comics that explore being Native-American and Jewish." We have chosen to highlight a short "Let me introduce myself" comic, and two others that continue that story and introduction, "Can a drumbeat drown out the sound of the hora?" and "A shotgun and a wedding, but not a shotgun wedding."

We also want to feature Emily Bowen Cohen's more recent piece on "Vis­it­ing Nation­al Parks While Native" which draws some stark comparisons to the Holocaust.
