Years in the works, Joel Christian Gilll's graphic adaptation of Ibram X. Kendi's masterful, ground-breaking history of race in America, Stamped From the Beginning, has at last been completed and published. While we certainly continue to encourage people to read the original, and so gain the full weight of its profound insights, Gill's graphic adaptation clearly presents the key elements and forcefully conveys the text's central arguments in a work that will only take a fraction of the time to absorb, and so in the process provides an ample demonstration of the communicative strengths of the comics form.
