Forbidden Images

In our time, totalitarian regimes all over the world have often singled out images as targets for their fury.

Since the start of the new millennium, thousands of pictures have been attacked, destroyed, and banned, and their makers and disseminators persecuted, targeted on social media, imprisoned, and murdered.
This book is a compilation of images that have shocked, upset, or angered censors of all kinds over the last 20 years in every domain--political cartoons, illustrations, comics, film, TV, photography, painting, graphic design, street art, posters, book covers, or online--in every country, from the most democratic to the most authoritarian, and from every political, religious, or philosophical ideology.
