One Last Thing...

Cartoonist Liz Montague shares some advice

on how to handle a virtual holiday dinner.

Thanksgiving is especially

meaningful for Liz Montague:

Last year she was en route to see

would appear in The New Yorker—a cartoonist’s

dream. “I emailed them saying they should feature

more Black cartoonists, and they agreed,” she says.

Her sketches were already a hit on Instagram

(@lizatlarge) with Sunny and many others, but

since the magazine’s publication, she has become

even more famous for her work addressing race,

current events and general frustrations about the

state of the world. “I like drawing about everyday

feelings,” she says. “And because of the body

I experience them in, it’s like a bridge for people.”
