World-renowned political cartoonist Khalil Bendib visits Sonoma State on Thursday, Sept. 20 at 7 p.m. in the Student Union Multi-Purpose Room to discuss his adventures in the media world both in the U.S. and abroad.
Called the "minesweeper of political cartooning in America," Khalil Bendib will present samples of his work and introduce his latest book "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED: Wicked Cartoons by America's Most Wanted Political Cartoonist." A $10 admission fee will be charged ($5 students).
Bendib will discuss the censorship that has dogged him as a progressive
cartoonist and commentator throughout his career. He will give pointers on
how a career can still be had despite the barriers and review his long involvement with corporate crime monitor and independent publication
Corpwatch.
Ralph Nader calls Bendib "an equal opportunity skewer." Howard Zinn says he "gets to the heart of the issues of our time. His cartoons are in the greatest tradition of American political humor."
