Comics Group
The Civics for All Comics Group began in early 2020 as a collaboration between the New York City Department of Education and various comics creators to publish non-fiction graphic texts for educational use. Spearheaded by the Department of Social Studies and Civics, the imprint has published twenty-seven comics as of July 2024. In addition to publishing comics, the Civics for All Comics Group regularly presents at conferences and freely shares its resources to educators and schools throughout the country.
We work closely with artists, writers, and scholars to publish content that is aligned with standards and expectations for social studies and civics instruction. Our comics are collaborations with people from myriad communities that reflect the diversity of New York City and the United States. This work requires decentering traditional narratives that omit or obscure important stories and history.
