Author Lela Lee celebrates more than two decades of what makes her and her comics creation angry.
I met Lela Lee through the San Diego Asian Film Festival in 2000 or 2001 after we briefly shared some time in a Comic-Con booth. I loved how her"Angry Little Asian Girl" creation was a challenge to stereotypes about both Asians and women. Being female and of Asian descent I happily bought and proudly wore her T-shirt featuring her grade school Korean girl character flipping the double bird.
"She's often asked me to get a job," Lee noted."I'm an adult. So I've decided I'm going to just do what I'm passionate about." For this latest collection of comics she focuses on her mother and being the daughter of an Asian mom.Detail from one of the Nursery Rhymes from"Angry Little Asian Girl: Moments with My Mother."
