Charlie Hebdo is known for its inflammatory illustrations and caricatures, sparing no one and no belief systems, from French President François Hollande to Jesus and the prophet Muhammad. So cartoonists from a variety of countries have paid tribute to the 12 victims of Wednesday’s attack the best way they know how: with cartoons. The result is a growing collection of powerful images.
If you think violence can stop artistic expression and freedom of speech, you just got it all wrong #JeSuisCharlie pic.twitter.com/lYUthadfV2
