Sequencing the Female Self: Teaching Personal History through Graphic Novels

Graphic novels focusing on the female experience are among the most frequently banned and challenged - how can educators use these valuable stories in the classroom and overcome challenges? This webinar gathers experts to look at important works and strategies to integrate them into your lessons.

Examining frequently challenged works like Drama by Raina Telgemeier, Fun Home by Alison Bechdel, and This One Summer by Jillian and Mariko Tamaki, our panel of comics creators, publishers, and educators will discuss teaching techniques for including these works in your classroom and strategies to navigate any resistance you may face when doing so. As a thank you, each webinar participant will receive a handout of relative CBLDF resources and a reading list of titles to help you get started.
