Queenie: Godmother of Harlem - A Graphic Novel
by Aurelie Levy Author and Elizabeth Colomba Illustrator
Queenie: Godmother of Harlem is an enchanting graphic novel inspired by an infamous mobster in the 1930's, Stepanie Saint-Clair. This beautifully illustrated account illuminates a history of police violence, corruption, and colonization amidst a bloody backdrop of voodoo and jazz in prohibition-era New York. Above all, Queenie is a fascinating and vital historical account of a woman who's genius helped to establish community through supporting the struggling masses in a highly racially segregated New York.
