Comics, Tech & Social Justice

Last week we talked about the growing role & involvement of AR in our lives. We talked about AR being used for urban planning, medical studies, navigational purposes and so much more.


Experiencing the comic book ‘Priya’s Shakti’ through AR was a very engaging and revealing encounter for me personally. The comic book talks about sexual harassment, which is sadly a very common subject of concern around us. I believe the visuals through AR did a good job in explaining the gravity of the situation. It emphasized on explaining the torment, agony and anger a woman feels on be sexually harassed. Similarly, Priya’s Mirror also discusses the grave issue of acid attacks on woman and the anguish caused by the same. Both the comics talk about these important and prevalent issues and how one shouldn’t let that dictate the rest of their lives. As a society, we need to ask ourselves, why does this even have to happen in the first place at all?

So, we can see how AR is being used to depict these grave issues through comic books.


Thank You
