Freedom of Expression
A Member Challenge using the Expert Editing rules.

Description
On 7 January 2015 occurred the deadliest act of terrorism in France of the last 50 years. Two gunmen killed 12 persons in the offices of a satirical newspaper, for the sole reason the cartoons and jokes were not up to their taste. 5 other persons were also killed in the manhunt and hostages crisis that happened after. If you wish, you can learn more about this tragedy here. Today, millions of people (including many countries leaders) walked through Paris, as an historical act of protestation against terror, against censorship. As a citizen, as an artist, freedom of expression is surely something you believe in. This week, create an image to support your convictions.
