The Wakanda Alliance is a comic reading and comprehension workshop. It was developed to help readers explore the historical context behind Marvel's most famous African heroes—the Black Panther, T'Challa, and his sister, Shuri.
A poetic interpretation of each storyteller was written by Aitina Fareed-Cooke
Come from among them young warrior for you are uniquely designed
One third the weight of steel, absorbing vibrations flowing freely as the water
Experiences have shaped your strength which has produced resilience within your spirit
Even the wind fails to move your indestructible nature
You are a multitude of many tales that are shared within the safety of this porch
Get Fokus’d Productions (GFP) was awarded funding by the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) through Arts Services Inc.’s fiscal sponsorship in support of the second iteration of Tales from the Porch. This groundbreaking exhibition amplifies stories told by minority-owned businesses and organizations impacting the Buffalo, NY community.
This project also included support from Buffalo AKG Art Museum and the Patreon members of A.I. The Anomaly.
