This graphic novel, written by Shawn Pryor and illustrated by Silvio dB, tells the historical story of Nat Turner, an enslaved black man who believed he was chosen by God to battle against the evils of slavery. Driven by visions, Turner banded with six others, and on August 22, 1831, his rebellion began with attacks at plantations in Southampton, Virginia.
As he and his group moved from plantation to plantation, dozens of enslaved men joined them. Finally, the local militia put an end to their movement, arresting and hanging many of the men involved. Nat Turner’s rebellion deepened the divide between Americans who wanted to abolish slavery and those who wanted to protect it, setting the groundwork for the American Civil War.

The toxicity and domestic violence aimed and given to Andre's Mother and Andre make him feel hopeless, as he desperately wants them both to escape this darkness.
The Fire Within is a storybook that shows how domestic violence can affect children and the risks and sacrifices they may take to attempt to free the ones they love and care for so much. There are children and youth in our world who are exposed to acts of domestic violence daily, and these acts can leave them damaged in so many ways. So I created this book alongside some talented creators to find a way to have this subject discussed more openly.
