Naji al-Ali (1938–87) was a Palestinian political cartoonist. He drew over 40,000 cartoons, from sharply critical commentaries on Palestinian and Arab politics and political leaders to visionary symbols of inhumanity and the pity of war, which transcended the divides. This event explores the remarkable power and influence of his work, and a legacy which continues to the present.
Participants include The Guardian cartoonist Steve Bell and Karma Nabulsi (University of Oxford), with live music by Palestinian singer Reem Kelani. Other participants to be announced soon.
Hosted by Omar Al-Qattan, Chairman of the A M Qattan Foundation.
