Jordan finds his voice and speaks out against injustice from "summary" of New Kid by Jerry Craft

In the midst of navigating his new school, Jordan slowly begins to realize the power of his voice. At first, he feels overwhelmed by the microaggressions and stereotypes he faces as one of the few students of color at Riverdale Academy Day School. However, as he becomes more comfortable with his identity and gains confidence in himself, Jordan starts to speak out against the injustices he witnesses. Whether it's calling out his classmates for their ignorant comments or challenging the school's lack of diversity in the curriculum, Jordan refuses to stay silent. He recognizes the importance of standing up for what is right, even if it means facing backlash or resistance from those around him. Through his art and creativity, Jordan finds a way to express his thoughts and feelings in a way that resonates with others. His comics serve as a platform to address issues of race, privilege, and inequality, sparking important conversations among his peers and teachers. As Jordan continues to find his voice, he not only empowers himself but also inspires those around him to speak up and take action against injustice. His journey of self-discovery and advocacy serves as a reminder that every voice has the power to make a difference, no matter how small or marginalized it may seem.
