Je suis Charlie

Support the demonstration this Saturday the 10th of January at 12.00-13.00 at Axeltorv in Kolding.
By Marianne Baggesen Hilger

Dear designers, dear artists, dear fellow citizens

The act of terror against Charlie Hebdo in Paris fills us with contempt, grief and despair. To the world of art it is horrible when bullet lead is turned against pencil lead. Of course this shows us that art can be perceived as dangerous. That art has power. May this power be used by all the artists of the world to continue the work of Charlie. This requires courage, solidarity and unity. 

Therefore, please show your support for the demonstration tomorrow, Saturday the 10th, at 12.00-13.00 at Axeltorv in Kolding. And let us use this opportunity to also honour the victims of Boko Haram's act of terror against the village BAGA in Nigeria on Thursday where up to 2000 people are reported killed.

Je suis Charlie.

Kind regards
