Black, weird, awkward and proud of it. Welcome to the club!Tired of feeling like you don't belong? Join the club. It's called the Section. You'd think a spot to chill, chat, and find community would be much easier to come by for nerdy, queer punks. But when four longtime, bookish BFFs-Lika, Amor, Lala, and Tony-can't find what they need, they take matters into their own hands and create a space where they can be a hundred percent who they are: Black, queer, and weird.The group puts a call out for all awkward Black folks to come on down to the community center to connect. But low attendance and IRL run-ins with trolls of all kinds only rock everybody with anxiety. As our protagonists start to question the merits of their vision, a lifetime of insecurities-about not being good enough or Black enough-bubbles to the surface. Will they find a way to turn it around in time for their radical brainchild, the Blackward Zine Fest?Lawrence Lindell's characters pop from the page in playful Technicolor. From mental health to romance, micro-and macro-aggressions to joy, our crew tackles everything life throws at them in this heartwarming tale about building a place to belong and the power of community.
