iMMigratitude: Tales of Asian Immigration

4.7/5 ( ratings)

immigratitude is an original comics collection featuring the stories of 18 artists who are immigrants and the children of immigrants.

Alex Paro, project lead:
"Last year, I finally managed to resolve a lengthy cold war with my father. It was born out of our experience of moving to Canada when their expectation of how I would turn out and reality greatly differed. Eventually, we were able to bridge that gap.

Around this time, I also became a member of a group called the Asian Creatives Network . As I shared my story with other members of the ACN, I realized that everyone had similar, but unique tales of intergenerational strain resulting from immigration.

The common portrayals of Asian parents in the media are often clownish and racially-charged with age-old stereotypes. Whereas the stories that we tell ourselves are of human beings who were flawed at times, but are also impossibly generous toward their children.

This book will tell those experiences and humanize our parents.

We also worked hard to put together a roster of diverse voices within the context of Asian. We are artists from Vietnamese, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and Filipino backgrounds."

Language: English
