Sept 30 - Stop Drawing or Else: A Cartoonist’s View on Democracy’s Perilous Moment

I wanted to share the webinar registration link for an upcoming live event at the University of Minnesota. Editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes, who won her second Pulitzer Prize in 2025, will deliver the 40th Annual Silha Lecture on Tuesday, September 30 at 7:00 pm CDT, 8:00 pm EDT. Following her lecture, Ann and I will have a conversation about our free expression journey in the United States. We also will entertain questions from the audience.

Our host is Jane Kirtley, the Silha Professor of Media Ethics and Law at the Hubbard School of Journalism and Mass Communication. We hope you will join us.


If you cannot make it, the event video will be posted on UMN's YouTube Channel in early October.

Kind regards,
