Hua Mulan
A graphic novel about the tale of Mulan
The widespread of the folk song Ballad of Mulan immortalizes the legendary heroine Hua Mulan, who takes her aged father's place in the conscription for the army by disguising herself as a man, for centuries. The story of Mulan is not only a heroic epic, but also a legend manifesting women’s independent spirit. Mulan is filial to her parents, loyal to her county and fights with the enemy to death on the battlefield, expressing the freedom and self-consciousness awakening of ancient women and reflecting the pursuit of gender equality of modern women.
This book uses the medium of the graphic novel to disseminate the spirit of traditional Chinese culture both domestically and internationally.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.

At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
