A graphic novel exploring the right to protest, told by people who raised their voices and demanded to be heard

"It's about what ordinary people do, because what we do . . . is quite extraordinary."

Protest matters, and never more so than today--and yet our rights around dissent have been eroded in law. Noisy Valley is a beautifully illustrated work of graphic nonfiction exploring the importance of protest and what it can achieve, through the voices of one vibrant community. In every neighborhood, there are the activists, the ones who raise their voices. Myfanwy Tristram visited the Rhondda Valley in South Wales, inviting local people to recount their memories of the times they'd refused to take things lying down. The Noisy Valley is the result: a graphic retelling of protests both past and present. The area is best known for the miners' strikes of the '80s, (and their support from the LGBT movement as documented in the film Pride) but the spirit of dissent runs deeply whenever there is injustice. These stories tell how communities and individuals pushed back on a landfill site that poisoned local streams, a waste-processing plant that destroyed an area of natural beauty, sexism in the workplace and the closure of the local hospital. We dip into the historic Aldermaston marches and the Greenham women's peace camp, too. The Noisy Valley is a testament to protestors who--whatever the changes in the law--have believed in their power to get things changed.

Myfanwy Tristram is a graphic novelist and communications manager based in Brighton, UK, whose work focuses on activism and social history. Her comics have been short-listed for several awards. In 2017, Tristram coordinated and published Draw the Line, depicting more than 100 simple actions to help change the world. The Noisy Valley was short-listed for the First Graphic Novel Award.
