Body politics have played a decisive role in American literature, especially in the work of African Americans, whose sensitivity to the tradition of misrepresenting black bodies in American culture has left indelible traces. InAmerican Body Politics Felipe Smith tracks the emergence of particular gender images in association with specific social, political, and economic pressures and explores the impact of interrelated discourses on race, gender, and nation upon the development of African American literature from the turn of the century to the early modern period.Smith focuses on gender images such as the white witch, black madonna, mammy, and white lady and examines the broad utility of body images in the discourse of black national belonging. In response to literary criticism that brackets the politics of representation under the phrase "extra-literary concerns," Smith articulates a theoretical approach that investigates the "extraliterary" as the source of some of the most powerful and enduring figurative and mythical constructs in the black writing tradition.American Body Politics is a remarkable synthesis of historical readings combined with a highly original contribution to the comprehension of racial thought and literary writing.

Here's the knuckle-busting conclusion to manga-ka Felipe Smith's tale of talent finding recognition in Los Angeles! Omario still doesn't have a comic book contract, which means he still doesn't have money, which means that he will die of starvation if he doesn't do something quick! Find out how everything turns out! See why Publisher's Weekly calls MBQ "a wonderful glimpse into the future of original English manga."

Omario is a struggling comic book artist in Los Angeles who is pissed off at the world for dismissing his artistic craft as commercial, super-hero dreck. O'Malley is a rookie cop who is also pissed off-at all the young thugs that are making the streets more dangerous by the day. When Omario and O'Malley cross paths with each other, the whole neighborhood almost goes up in smoke, as the frustrations of getting by in this world start to boil over..... MBQ is fast-food from the 'hood at its spiciest. From the creative mind of up-and-coming comic artist Felipe Smith comes this tragi-comic portrait of the great big, burger-fed underbelly of life in the big city.

MBQ Volume 1 (MBQ manga)

In this final volume of Peepo Choo, Milton and Reiko begin to develop their own dialog. Milton has begun to understand that there is much more to appreciate about this culture than he imagined. He also realizes that there was nothing wrong with being who he is as long as he is being earnest. Sure that might isolate him in certain conditions, but it may also prove to be charming; as in the case with his new friend Reiko. Reiko's views on American people also begin to change. People are who they are no matter where they hail from, and while the media and geo-political issues may influence subcontext it does not change individual personalities. She knows what she wants and she is willing to do whatever possible to achieve her goals in life. Her future might not be in Japan. They might not be in the US. But she will clearly be looking forward to a future where she is judged on her merits and talents with equity and honesty. Together they have much of that, but they are also very young. The future has many options for these two. So when they part ways at the end of this trip, one has to wonder...Will they ever see each other's home the same way again?

Peepo Choo 3

Vertical Comics

They say you cannot choose where and when are born; we are gifted into the worlds are parents are living at the time. Whether a blessing or a curse, as individuals we must make the most of our environments to advance as best possible given the circumstances present. For the cast of Peepo Choo, their places of birth, whether they be the suburbs of Tokyo or the South Side of Chicago, appear to be a curse they cannot escape...until they realize the world is a much smaller place than they thought. On the surface Milton appears to be your average a high school student living in the thugged out streets of Chicago's South Side. As is the case with many teens looks can be deceiving. When he's not at school or riding the metro, he is at the local comic shop cosplaying as his favorite Japanese animation character Peepo Choo! A hardcore fan, Milton knows every line from the Peepo Choo animation by heart. He can happily replicate the Peepo Dance with ease, and genuinely believes the world depicted in this cartoon is "the real" Japan. On the other side of the Pacific lives Reiko. A teenage model on the rise, she also has another side of her. Reiko is a feminist working hard to someday move overseas to a place where she could be treated equally and fairly by men and women. In Japan, Reiko feels she is a teenage sex object, and after a number of interactions with young Americans in Tokyo she begins to believe that her American dream is going to be painfully similar to her worst Japanese nightmares. Chance would bring the two teens together. But in this case fate comes in the form of the underworld! "Now that Smith is producing works for a Japanese audience under the editorial guidelines of Kodansha--doing what Paul Pope in the 1990s ultimately could not do--it's going to be fascinating to see how his already amazing talents change and grow."--Jason Thompson, ComiXology
