Forget the doom and gloom, I have decided today’s post will be a light one. An informative event on the disappeared last week at Lima`s San Marcos University included a exhibit consisting of blown-ups of caricatures by Carlín. Carlos Tovar, commonly know as Carlin, is an excellent political cartoonist published daily in La República newspaper. Given the human rights theme, the caricatures chosen for the exhibit were mostly on the Fujimori family, and I am reproducing them here for everyone’s viewing pleasure.
