Dissent (Part 3) - Satire Unmasks Hypocrisy, Foibles

from Consider This · host Consider This

Satire that draws attention to the abuse of power and the lavish lifestyles of the political elite has gotten many a professional editorial cartoonist in trouble. They are often celebrated by free speech advocates. But what about anonymous voices who take to walls, in the form of graffiti, or string up banners, mocking politicians; do they have a right to free speech too? Melisa Idris and Sharaad Kuttan speak to award-winning editorial cartoonist Zunar, himself the target of state repression during the Najib Razak Administration.
