Dictators hate political cartoons -- so I keep drawing them

No subtitles available.
Title:
独裁者は風刺画を嫌います、だから私は描き続けます
Speaker:
Rayma Suprani
Description:

"A political cartoon is a barometer of freedom," says Rayma Suprani, who was exiled from her native Venezuela for publishing work critical of the government. "That's why dictators hate cartoonists." In a talk illustrated with highlights from a career spent railing against totalitarianism, Suprani explores how cartoons hold a mirror to society and reveal hidden truths -- and discusses why she keeps drawing even when it comes at a high personal cost.
