PACKER AND FORNEY:
I thought Packer's story was incredibly vivid about a young black woman struggling to identify with her sexuality in college. I understand the hardships and struggles she went through to identify with herself. I know what it's like to be a compulsive liar just so people wouldn't know anything about me; at one point I started believing my own lies. I also believe that she had an unusually hard time accepting herself because of society's idea of homosexuality and her own father.
Forney's first comic about change is really thought provoking. I often wonder if anything I do makes a difference. I use to try to recycle and be more green, but the little amount I did compared to everyone seemed like such a waste and I gave up. I think this comic is basically trying to encourage your beliefs and not giving up. The second comic I think tries to point out that people feel that there is only one moment that they wish they could live or make better when in fact there will be more in the future.
