Posted on by

To go along with the Jewish Comics Experience exhibition, JewCE held a convention with numerous panels highlighting the history of comics and it connection to Jewish culture and history. Taking place in November, the convention has now released all of the panels for streaming and to watch on demand.

Who gets to write the story of a people, person, or event?  How can you approach a historical or contemporary story that isn’t your own with empathy, understanding of the subject, audience, and your own influence as a creator?  Join us to hear from a group of creators who have approached this craft from multiple vantages and hear their take on the nuance and subtlety of retelling.

Moderated by Julian Voloj, the panel features Tracy White, Stephanie Phillips, Koren Shadmi, and Neil Kleid.
