Gabby Rivera is a queer Latinx writer from Brooklyn, NY. She is currently writing AMERICA, America Chavez’s solo series, for Marvel.  America is Marvel’s first Latina lesbian superhero. America has always been incontestably awesome, and as the newly appointed leader of the Ultimates, she’s now officially claimed her place as the preeminent butt-kicker of the Marvel Universe! In this talk, Gabby will guide students through the journey of self-expression that creates vulnerability and empowerment, while emphasizing the importance of your stories/lives and how representation matters.
