Reviews
" (H)afrocentric is a book that is incredibly contemporary and fits the progressive minds of today's readers. It tackles issues of intersectionality and gentrification in ways that are not only informative but also entertaining. It's unlike any comic book I've ever read." --Jamie Broadnax, founder and managing editor, Blackgirlnerds.com, "Rebels, phonies, fringemongers, and the simply clueless take wry hits in Smith's insightful series. Culture watchers, teen through adult, will find their presumptions challenged as well as much to recognize in themselves." --Martha Cornog, Library Journal, "Alongside nicely detailed illustrations by Ronald Nelson, Smith sets up promise for a deeper picture of an ultimately new type of comic." --Brandon Yu, San Francisco Chronicle, "Smith's comics ooze with originality." --AFROPUNK "(H)afrocentric is a book that is incredibly contemporary and fits the progressive minds of today's readers. It tackles issues of intersectionality and gentrification in ways that are not only informative but also entertaining. It's unlike any comic book I've ever read." --Jamie Broadnax, founder and managing editor of Blackgirlnerds.com "(H)afrocentric is fully dope, artistic, brilliantly drawn, styled, and wonderfully radical with an awesomely fiery heroine! Juliana Smith and her team are to be commended for this desperately needed political and cultural contribution. Get into it and grab your soapboxes!" --Jared A. Ball, author of I Mix What I Like! A Mixtape Manifesto, "The novel hosts a multicultural cast of college students who engage politically, blending satire and history for a recipe of topics millennials don't shy from. Readers will be smitten with Naima, and they will hope for more of her. (Starred Review)" -- Kirkus Reviews, "There's a charming spirit and guiding intelligence at work, with messages for readers of all identities to chew on." -- publishersweekly.com, " (H)afrocentric is fully dope, artistic, brilliantly drawn, styled, and wonderfully radical with an awesomely fiery heroine! Juliana Smith and her team are to be commended for this desperately needed political and cultural contribution. Get into it and grab your soapboxes!" --Jared A. Ball, author, I Mix What I Like! A Mixtape Manifesto, "But there is something else here, rooted (in my view) in the existing limitations of the indie comic world. Diverse in almost every sense, often politically radical, and very d.i.y. in both production and distribution, it has been blessed with too few artists of color, and too few probings into the world of black youth today. With admirable exceptions, it has not much treated the legacy of the great past movements that reshaped African American life, and the victories denied by repression and the steady advance of neoliberalism. (H)afrocentric would be remarkable if only for its subtle take on these legacies and how they are perceived, ignored or understood, refigured or recycled by the following generations, marked indeed by mixed-race youngsters, the source of the "H" in the comic's title." --Paul Buhle, Socialism & Democracy
