Did you know Captain America was punching Hitler on a comic-book cover a full year before the US entered the war? Or that Superman’s Jewish creators received hate mail for daring to invent a hero who stood up to fascism?
This November, HKHTC is bringing the Center for Jewish History’s acclaimed comics exhibition to Hong Kong in a special bilingual edition. Students and visitors will explore how the modern superhero was born in the fight against hatred, and tour with trained student docents.
Public open days, school tours and a special closing conversation are all in the works.
Stay tuned! And please feel free to check outour latest End-of-School-Year Update newsletter. 👉 Read the newsletter here.
See you this fall.
