Since 2004, students at Martin Luther King, Jr., High School in
Manhattan have been creating manga-Japanese comic books. They write
the stories, design the characters, and publish their works in
print and on the Internet. These students-African-American and
Latino teenagers-are more than interested in the art and medium of
manga. They have become completely engrossed in Japanese language,
culture, and society. Based on a four-year study, Manga High
explores the convergence of literacy, creativity, social
development, and personal identity in one of New York City's
largest high schools. The text is highlighted by reproductions and
content analysis of students' original art and writing. An appendix
includes guidelines for educators on starting a comic book club.
