Yumi Sakugawa Gets It

Just found the most amazing illustrated essay: Claudia Kishi: My Asian-American Female Role Model Of The '90s. Yumi Sakugawa is my favorite person right now. Go read the whole thing immediately, adult Dawn Schafer is portrayed as a tanorexic wearing a pot leaf necklace. Can't even handle the greatness of that image.

  2. omg that was amazing. Claudia was my hero too, not because I am Asian-American, but because as a Hispanic I too had precious few role models in the 90s, and for my kid brain, I identified with the jet black hair, almond shaped eyes, and artistic side...plus, I used her to justify my own crazy sense of style. It was OUT THERE.
