Awesome segment, Jaime! Activist comic book artist? Right up my alley! I've got to meet her. Reminded me of this mini doc piece on an Indonesian art collective: http://youtube.com/watch?v=m4qJsUOYms0

Cheers, Andy. Katie is one of the powerhouses behind Portland's League of Young Voters. Cool group of people.
