**A master class with Tunisian cartoonist \_Z\_**  
  
Leading up to the 2011 Tunisian revolution that toppled Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali's autocratic regime _Z_'s satirical cartoons made him one of the most wanted targets of Tunisia's secret services. He has remained anonymous as he continues denouncing the new government's antidemocratic practices. _Z_'s work also criticizes development practices in his country. In this master class, _Z_ will discuss his works to combat overdevelopment in Tunis and teach participants how to draw a political cartoon. If you would like to attend this class, **please RSVP to [Liz Flanagan.](mailto:elizabethflanagan@fas.harvard.edu)**

 *While at Harvard, \_Z\_ will also be a public talk on November 14th; for more information, click* [here.](/event/tunisian-political-cartoonist-z-drawing-tunisian-revolution)

 *PLEASE NOTE*: due to the sensitive nature of \_Z\_'s anonymity, **photography and videography will be forbidden** at this event. Anyone attempting to photograph or film this talk will be asked to leave immediately.
