Episode 006 - Tracie Ching - Illustrator - Screen Print - THOR: Ragnarok Poster

Today's guest is Tracie Ching. She is a very talented illustrator that does a lot of work in the political and pop culture space. During this episode we talk about specific hoarding, which is much healthier than regular hoarding. We also talk about possibly one of the earliest illustrations she did which was a poster for the DARE campaign that went through her elementary school. We talk about the GI:Joe packaging she was a part of and then we do a deep dive into the poster that she illustrated for THOR: Ragnarok. She shares with us how she decided on the materials she was going to use, the process of creating it, and the lack of sleep to finish it in time. Her screen printing shop @thehalfandhalf gets a massive shout out! In the intro of this episode I also talked about the systemic racism in our culture, how little I actually know about white privelage, that I'm going to be learning more because this culture doesn't feel right, society doesn't feel right, not saying something didn't feel right. So below is a list or resources to start your learning on what you can do, what we all can do about systemic racism that is woven into our culture.
