Kotama Bouabane’s complete Melting Words (2007). I know there’s a photoset going around with a few of these, but I think it’s important that they’re all together, as that tells the story best.

7 Social Disasters That Can Strike Out Of Nowhere
I’ve been sitting on these since winter, although I’m not sure exactly why. I still think about doing a playing card deck someday and started working up some face card designs when I had a little time off over the holidays. I couldn’t settle on a standardized backdrop, so I began tailoring them to each character instead. If I were to do a Kickstarter campaign for something like this sometime, would anyone be interested, or not so much?
On the morning of September 4, 1957, fifteen-year-old Dorothy Counts set out on a harrowing path toward Harding High, where-as the first African American to attend the all-white school – she was greeted by a jeering swarm of boys who spat, threw trash, and yelled epithets at her as she entered the building.
Charlotte Observer photographer Don Sturkey captured the ugly incident on film, and in the days that followed, the searing image appeared not just in the local paper but in newspapers around the world.
People everywhere were transfixed by the girl in the photograph who stood tall, her five-foot-ten-inch frame towering nobly above the mob that trailed her. There, in black and white, was evidence of the brutality of racism, a sinister force that had led children to torment another child while adults stood by. While the images display a lot of evils: prejudice, ignorance, racism, sexism, inequality, it also captures true strength, determination, courage and inspiration.
Frances is a character who’s definitely a woman, but her status is most important as a human rather than someone who’s either gendered or marriageable. I’m really interested in trying to tell stories about women that don’t involve romantic components. That’s so much a part of the way we feel about female characters and their needs that it feels like it’s built in — but I’d like to find a way that it’s not. There are so many more stories than that.
