Incognegro graphic novel7/8/2023 White is the inspiration behind “Incognegro,” the graphic novel by literary prose writer Mat Johnson and British artist Warren Pleece. He used his white looks to infiltrate the Ku Klux Klan and wrote many on-the-scene articles exposing the horrors of lynching. This is Walter Francis White who, despite his appearance, was a black man. If you look at photos of NAACP leadership from the 1930s, you’ll find a wiry, professorial-looking man with blond hair and fair skin at the center of many. “Incognegro” by Mat Johnson, art by Warren Pleece (Vertigo, 134 pages, $19.99)
