REPORTER: Adam EMAIL: adamsartexpose@gmail.com ADAMSARTEXPOSE’ A BLACK WOMAN CARTOONIST WHO ESTABLISHED A SPECIAL VOICE FOR BLACK WOMEN Considering recent Supreme Court decisions in the U.S. women have been losing their freedom of decision-making in child rearing and personal health care. One Black woman, Barbara Brandon- Croft had established a voice for Black Women and in so doing for all women regarding issues pertaining specifically to the female agenda. Barbara Brandon- Croft is the daughter of Brumsic Brandon who was a newspaper cartoonist who produced the cartoon strip Luther. Luther was a nationally syndicated comic strip about African American children and the struggle for racial equality. The title Luther was inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and was last published in 1986. Barbara grew up watching her father working on the kitchen table drawing the Luther comic strips. She enjoyed drawing and was recruited to add zip atone coloring to her father’s comic strips when she was in middle school. It was not her intention to become a cartoonist. One of her first jobs was working for the Black women’s magazine Essence. The editor liked her drawings and hired her to do a monthly cartoon. This is where the cartoon strip, “Where I’m Coming From” originated. Regrettably, the magazine went out of business before her first cartoon was run. The cartoon strip was composed of nine characters who were primarily talking heads each with their own personality. The actual first publication of Barbara’s comic strip was in the Detroit Free Press and was then picked up by Universal Press Syndicate and was found in newspapers in the U.S., Canada, South 6 DDG is always FREE ddg.gay.
