From: Evans, Malcolm Paul, 1945- :Digital cartoons
By: Press (Christchurch, N.Z.)
Reference: DCDL-0020456
Description: Shows a tiny Tame Iti, Maori activist, being found beneath one of the shoes of Nelson Mandela, South African anti-apartheid activist. Context: the trial of the 'Urewera four' originally accused of terrorism, that charge, since dropped, and now accused of illegal possession of firearms and participation in an organised criminal group. Tame Iti's defence lawyer Russell Fairweather said that Iti is an important leader in the country's history, comparing him to Nelson Mandela. "History is full of people getting half a story, having a preconception, reaching a conclusion which is often punitive, and then regretting it," Fairbrother said. In South Africa, Mandela is often known as Madiba, his Xhosa clan name; or as tata (Xhosa: father). Mandela has received more than 250 awards over four decades, including the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize. Colour and black and white versions available Quantity: 2 digital cartoon(s).

"As a treat we add a little something in your gruel.." 17 October 2010
Date: 2010
From: Hubbard, James, 1949-: Digital caricatures and cartoons
Reference: DCDL-0015873
Description: Liu Xiaobo, the Chinese dissident who has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize sits in his rat-infested cell and stares at the bowl of gruel a prison guard has just delivered to him. The guard says that 'as a treat we add a little something to your gruel..' The Nobel Peace Prize is in the bowl of gruel. Refers to the news that China's best-known dissident, Liu Xiaobo, has won the Nobel peace prize from the prison cell where he is serving 11 years for incitement to subvert state power. The announcement provoked a furious reaction from Chinese authorities who say Liu Xiaobo is a criminal who has been sentenced by Chinese judicial departments for violating Chinese law. Announcing the prize, the Norwegian Nobel committee praised Liu Xiaobo for his "long and non-violent struggle for fundamental human rights in China. The committee has long believed that there is a close connection between human rights and peace." Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
