In this episode of Creative Guts, co-hosts Becky Barsi and Joe Acone sit down with cartoonist, historian, and award-winning author Joel Christian Gill.
Joel is celebrated for his powerful graphic novels that illuminate overlooked narratives from Black history, including Tales of The Talented Tenth, his graphic novelization of Stamped from the Beginning, and his autobiographical work Fights. His storytelling blends rigorous historical research with deeply personal narratives, fostering empathy and a more human understanding of the past and present. In addition to his published works, Joel chairs the Visual Narrative graduate program at Boston University, where he mentors the next generation of storytellers and artists.
