Summary

Stories we watch and read often only show it from one perspective, very often excluding those that truly made all the difference. In Big Jim and the White Boy, a graphic novel that reimagines the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, we get to experience the journey from the perspective of Jim and centers on his experiences with his sidekick Huck. Author David F. Walker and artist Marcus Kwame Anderson join us to talk about all of the inspirations, ambitions, love and strength of Big Jim. LISTEN NOW!
