Sound not required

Nat Turner by Kyle Baker (Kyle Baker Publishing, 2005). Yes, this isn't music. But it is an astounding piece of art. Comic book artist Kyle Baker took a childhood fascination with slave revolutionary Nat Turner and turned it a serial graphic novel. There are very few words in this book, most of the story telling is done threw the visual medium. It is amazing how you can look into a characters eyes or hear their screams. Kyle Baker is able to capture the raw fearful emotion that many African-American slaves must have endured. In light of the inauguration of the first African-American president, this book reminds us of what atrocities humans are capable of and that we can indeed learn from our past mistakes.
