Top 5 Microaggressions In Conferences, Conventions, & Festivals Aimed At BIPOC Authors [CC]

Welcome to today's episode! For this edition of Top 5 Microaggressions Aimed at BIPOC Authors, I'm ranking them inside the wonderful world of Conferences, Conventions, and Festivals. Once again, I must state that this is by no means an exhaustive list of every microaggression we've had to endure, but in my experience, these are the most common. And yep, this video comes #withcaptions! #authortu...
Woke nonsense. Do you think any racists would even watch this video in the first place? Oh wait. I'm white, so I suppose I'm racist just for existing, I forgot.
I love how you broke down the basics and showed us how you work. Great video!
Thank you so much for watching!!
The best explanation
So happy to find another Puerto RIcan comics creator!! I'm close to graduating in a degree in sequential art, and I'm trying to learn what I can to write my own stories (I do a lot of drawing, but writing? Not as much as I should.)
This is the sweetest! Congratulations on finishing your degree!
How do you stop someone from doing something subconsciously? Never mind, doesn't matter. I don't know where or who you think you are, but this is America. We get to say or do anything we want. You don't get to tell ANYBODY, except maybe your children, what they should or shouldn't get to do. In short, grow up. If someone accidentally says something that offends you, get over it.
You must be so unsuccessful and unhappy. Bendito. ☺️
i don’t think it can be overstated how insightful this is
Thank you so much!! ☺️☺️
I already have my story I wrote years ago. Want to develop it more though as I wrote it and finished in two weeks (at least the genesis of it) years ago. I’ve since been building the universe a little more and I found the script but wanted to turn it into a graphic novel and didn’t have a know how of how to format it. Thank you for your videos.
Ahhh this is amazing! Thank you so much for watching!
What a video! Thank you
Thank you so much for watching!!
AMAZING information. Thank you!
Thank you so much for watching!!
I’m writing a script for a graphic novel, and at first I just wrote paragraphs of dialogue and nothing else like “Zina: blahblabloohboba.” I later gave up because I was so out of motivation, and my script was a mess. After this video, I actually have more motivation and now know how to write the script! Thank you for this amazing video :)
This just made my day! Thank you so much and keep up the great work!
HI anyone live in or near Atlanta ga? I wrote a story but haven't completed a script yet. looking for some trying to callab with. also, great video. helped a lot
I am going to use fade in for my graphic novel.
Keep up the good work
Thank you so much!!
A great comprehensive cover. Like and shared.
Thank you so much!!
brilliant video extremely helpful thank you so much
Thank you so much!!
Does graphic novel need to be done traditionally?
Yes and no, but I’m interested in knowing more about what you’re referring to as traditionally? I can make a separate video about this!
Thanks for the tips! Very interesting how similar it is to writing scripts for film or tv, despite the technical differences, the same writing principals apply. I suppose instead of time/duration, I need to think in “pages”
Thank you so much for watching!
Please make more vedio like this
Just watched your vedio and I was like OMG ❤it was magical and helpful thanks for vedio💖
Thank you so much for watching!
I love this. Do you have sample pages of the scripts in this video?
Thank you! I only posted the pages seen in this video as samples, yes.
Hi !! Thanks for this 🙌. Also tell us of your publishing experience 👍
Thank you so much for watching!!
Very, very helpful. thank you!
You’re welcome!!
Such an amazing video, thank you so much for the content. Greetings from brasil!
Ahhh thank you so much for watching!!
Why does Sheila think she, not her boyfriend, is entitled to the last piece of pizza?! ;-) Thanks for the video. :-)
😂😂😂 Thank you so much for watching!
Thank you
Thank you for watching!
Love it!
Thank you so much!!
@3:23 will usually contain what ?
Very informative. Big thanks! ^^
Nice critique! No part 2?
Not yet, but hopefully soon! Thank you so much for watching!
Thanks for giving a proper way to my efforts..
It’s my pleasure!
Began turning my screen play into a graphic novel recently, and this was very helpful for the transition between styles. THANK YOU!!
I started today the same process, how are you going?
@@riffbaama haven't had time to add to it for a while. Hoping to make some progress on it soon.
@emmanuelespino2896 I too am trying to turn my screenplays into graphic novels. I’ve already produced my screenplays into films but I would love to get into graphic novel/comic book writing and I believe starting with my screenplays is a good idea.
For some reason, I could never visualize how to write the script, but this was soooo helpful!!!! Thank you :D
This is very helpful! Saving this video!
I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation. 😊
Thank you so much for watching!!
I’m so happy that I stumbled upon your video. I am a bipoc author and I see this a lot in traditional and self published books. I myself have read some aggressive reviews towards authors of color and other indigenous groups and I am quite baffled at how cruel some people can be. Thank you for posting this.
Thank you so much for watching and for your kind words!! I see what you mention all the time and it sucks. I hope we can have a much safer environment as BIPOC creators in publishing soon. 💜
@@amparoortiz2234 You’re very welcome. This topic is so important for others to hear. And yes I agree. I too pray that we can have a safer environment. Our voices matter.🙌🏾🙌🏾😊
Great watch while working on graphic novels follow puerto rican strong creator ;) keep it up =)
Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much!
Thank you for even watching!!

Thank you so much for watching!!

Brand new here, but I am already on board with the rooster hype train!
Ahhhh the rooster would LOVE to know this! 😂😂😂

Lana is fully aware of your Takeshi support and she supports it!!!!!
FINALLY THE ROOSTER SPEAKS HIS TRUTH 🐓🐓🐓
Smoothies heal me too. I'll need one after our liveshow 😌
Not Amparo blatantly admitting to foregoing sunscreen 😩 in this climate???????? Author scandal!
The visual of swallowing an entire pack of Twizzlers 🥲
Imagine someone not liking Takeshi. Tasteless behavior.
You're gonna need one DURING the show looooool!
