Pulitzer Prizing-winning editorial cartoonists Ann Telnaes of The Washington Post and Signe Wilkinson of the Philadelphia Daily News will talk about the role of political cartoonists and will reflect on the one-year anniversary of the Charlie Hebdo massacre and the terrorist attacks in Paris in November 2015.
On Jan, 7, 2015, Charlie Hebdo’s headquarters in Paris were attacked by terrorists who had targeted the satirical magazine because of how it had depicted Islam’s Prophet Muhammad in past cartoons. The attack killed 12 people, including five cartoonists at the magazine.
Telnaes and Wilkinson will also display some of their award-winning work.
The event was moderated by John Maynard from the Newseum.
