[Comicsstudiessociety] Cartoonists Rights Network International's Fall fundraiser

[Mike Rhode]

 There are three cartoon-based charities* that I recommend that defend
freedom of speech or help cartoonist's lives. CRNI takes on the
international cases - the people who might be disappeared, sued, or
assaulted for their opinions. We've seen the chilling effect of book bans
and attacks on graphic novels, cartoonists and publishers in the US over
the past few years, and it's time to put some money into pushing back
against the forces of repression. I'm donating $100 as soon as I send this
post - Mike Rhode
**I also support CBLDF and Hero Initiative*

Free Expression doesn’t come cheap. In fact, multiple cartoonists have lost
their lives in their pursuit of that right. Others have been assaulted and
abused, criminalized or imprisoned, and an increasing number are displaced
from their homes.

Our mission is to defend these vulnerable cartoonists, including material
aid for those in emergencies. Now more than ever we can only meet their
needs with your help. When you donate, you show support of our work and
your commitment to human rights and free expression.

Please note online payment is by far our preferred method, and the only
option for supporters overseas. Those in the USA who still wish to donate
via check or money order may do so, made payable to “Cartoonists Rights
Network International” at PO Box 7272, Fairfax Station, VA 22039
