Adopting in Africa -
I can't find the comment online, but I heard it on the radio ["why would you adopt all the wway over in Africa when there are plenty of family-less white babies in The US.]
Maybe I misheard it. I hope I did. the question was responded to in one way, but how I would respond is: is it a question of why black and not white, or why african and not US American? Think about it. Some people have a knee jerk reaction, which is a race question, not a child in need question.

Joe Sacco has always intrigued me. After I read Gorajda (?) and Palestine I wanted more. I think that graphic novels and journalism, history are very effective.
I love the humanity in Sacco's work. I can really experience with the people. Like Waltz with Bashir, these forms of communication and media are so very touching and personal.
The patience you must have to spend so much time on your drawings, dang! props to you. Keep up the good work. I love to read your stuff!
