The No Kings Map is Live!
Hundreds of nonviolent protests are already planned for No Kings Day on March 28, and more are being added by the hour.
Since before the founding of the country, there have been political cartoons, often mocking the powerful with sharp humor, capturing the absurdity of the moment, shaping public opinion, and even exposing corruption. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and in today’s fast paced digital world an image can be shared in the blink of an eye, changing hearts and minds.
With censorship and threats on the rise for the press, including political cartoonists, **join us for this special evening with three award-winning political cartoonists** who will take us behind the scenes on how they distill the news into a single image and the role that political satire plays in defending democracy.
