Vishavjit Singh is a New York City based illustrator, writer, performance artist, diversity speaker and creator of www.Sikhtoons.com. He got his spark for cartooning in the wake of the 9/11 tragedy when Americans looking like him, with turbaned and bearded countenances, became targets of hate and bias crimes. For the past few years he has been traveling across the US with his Captain America persona armed with a turban, beard and humor to tackle fear, anxiety, bigotry and intolerance. He uses storytelling as a tool to create a space for challenging conversations around identity, race, bias and how to be agents for change. His message and work have been covered by a number of news outlets, including the New York Times, NPR, BBC, The Atlantic, Huffington Post, The Guardian and Time Magazine.
