JARIN: 9-year-old Blackfeet kid living in NYC.
A Comic Strip, Spoken-Word, and Visual Art presentation inspired by "The Boondocks," "Calvin and Hobbes," and MacArthur Genuis Kara Walker. After losing his family and moving to New York City to live with his uncle, 9-year-old Jarin Antor meets Paq, a 7-year-old dreamer in love with her American Indian heritage even though no one has ever taught her about it - not her community, not her family, and certainly not her teachers.

Paq creates make-believe life-threatening adventures in her head - NYC becomes the Wild West frontier and monster-filled jungles from Tarzan movies. She is definitely crazy, but she is exactly the type of best-friend Jarin needs as he learns to adjust to the harsh realities of life off of his Blackfeet Indian Reservation. ​
Cartoons hand-drawn by Myrton Running Wolf and Quentin Salas. Silhouettes: Hand-cut black construction paper on white poster-board. Captions by Myrton Running Wolf.
