Podcast special: Neil Gaiman talks to Index on Censorship on cartoons and free speech

On censorship and cartoons.

By New Statesman

Fantasy writer Neil Gaiman has a long affiliation with cartoonists, and illustrators, and a history of fighting for them, partly because he spent 12 years on the board of the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund. Here he speaks to Index on Censorship for an upcoming feature in their magazine:
