Shortly after terrorists killed 12 journalists from “Charlie Hebdo” — a satirical Parisian newspaper named for the “Peanuts” character Charlie Brown — cartoonists began circulating new images and past works on Twitter in solidarity with those who died, including the newspaper’s editor-in-chief Stephane Charbonnier and three cartoonists. According to the BBC, witnesses overheard the attackers shout “We have avenged the Prophet Muhammad.” The event mirrored a 2011 attack when the Charlie Hebdo offices were firebombed after printing a satirical cartoon depicting the prophet Muhammad. The cartoons are images in clear defiance of those terrorists’ stance.
