Carlos Latuff Disowns Aussie Graffiti
I don't write a lot about Brazilian cartoonist Carlos Latuff, mostly because people getting mad at someone's cartoons isn't really news and the kind of fury that people generally express on both sides of political issues as spurred on by such cartoons tends to make the world a much, much dumber place. However, I did notice that Latuff was recently
drawn into a story about strident graffiti in Australia that's been using his name as part of the signage. I was struck by the fact that someone's name could so easily become an act of political protest, even if it's not exactly the most sophisticated kind of statement.
