United Nations: Cartooning for Peace/my speech

Wednesday, September 8th, 2010

The other day, I was looking around the web, and found a clip of the speech that I gave at The United Nations. This was a time following the initial events of the Danish Cartoon Controversy. I was invited to participate with other members of Cartooning for Peace, an organization founded by Jean Plantu, a French cartoonist. Cartooning for Peace is very active, and I feel very fortunate to participate when I can.

Speech is here (to hear what I had to say, click on my name on the UN page):
