Je Suis Charlie! The horrific terrorist attack on Charlie - TopicsExpress



          

Je Suis Charlie! The horrific terrorist attack on Charlie Hebdo, a satire magazine in Paris, France, is a stark reminder of the importance of free speech and the power of the cartoon as a form of expression. The ToonSeum board and staff strongly condemn this brutal and deadly attack on cartoonists and journalists and join the global cartooning community in mourning the victims. The rights of cartoonists and journalists to express their views must be fiercely protected to ensure that these kinds of freedoms continue. We encourage newspapers and news outlets not to shy away from publishing controversial material or being a forum for the free exchange of ideas. If that happens it will only invite more terrorists to launch attacks against cartoonists and their publications. The ToonSeum stands in solidarity with Charlie Hebdo and cartoonists everywhere in defending satire as an ultimate expression of liberty.
