Sikhtoons book to be released
Happy 100th Birthday Fauja Singh!
New York City-based Vishavjit Singh, the creator of Sikhtoons, is releasing his very first Sikhtoons illustrated book next weekend at the Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art Festival in NYC. We’ve blogged about Vishavjit and Sikhtoons many times before, and are glad to see Sikhtoons going to the next level in book format.
According to Vishavjit, “The book focuses on dispelling the mysteries of the Sikh dastaar…target[ing] young and old, Sikh and Non-Sikh. The book features Fauja Singh, Hip Hop Singhs, Waris Ahluwalia and much more.”
Sikhtoons has long been a creative and light-hearted medium to tackle important issues for our community from 1984 to Hindutva, bullying in schools to contemporary Punjab politics. The details on the release event are below, and you can buy tickets in advance here and RSVP on Facebook here. Hopefully the book will be available to order online in the future. We’ll keep you posted.

Education is all around us, it is due to education that I can write this comment and you can write this blog with such a grip. Education indoctrinates a spirit of self-motivation and continuous improvement in the quality and standard and increasing the caliber of mindset.
Giving thanks for your write-up. I know that with today’s complicated world, folks have many beliefs and this has made it to be really hard for learners just like me. However, you have made the idea very easy for me to fully grasp and I now have the awareness of the correct thing. Your own continued reputation as among the top experts about this topic may be boosted through words associated with appreciation from subscribers like me. Thanks, once more.
Love this idea. The book looks great. The cover is impressive and interesting.
