Lucine Kasbarian: Political Cartoons: Covered Tracks by Turkey

Lucine Kasbarian (Լուսին  Գասպարեան) is a New Jersey-based children’s book author and syndicated journalist/political cartoonist whose works have appeared in more than 45 media outlets across the globe.

She is a second generation-born American-Armenian descendant of Genocide survivors, brought up in an Armenian-speaking home where humor, politics and the arts shared equal stage. 

Lucine first began producing political cartoons in response to the appalling murder of journalist Hrant Dink and as a way to constructively express her outrage over social injustice and réalpolitik. As a cartoonist, Lucine’s intention is to spotlight realities and hypocrisies that do not receive adequate coverage in mainstream media; to see her work appear in media outlets that reflect the traditions of a truly free press; and to drive the points home in absurdist, paradoxical ways by drawing from history, popular culture and personal experience.
