Just because people want to save rainforests doesn’t mean that they’re dismissive of other forests, says political cartoonist Keith Knight. Similarly, the #BlackLivesMatter movement doesn’t mean that proponent don’t care about other lives, Knight said during “Drawn From the Headlines: Communication and Political Cartoons,” a discussion Wednesday night at the National Archives in Washington.

“You’ve gotta think about what’s making you get bent out of shape,” Knight said as he explained his “All Lives Matter *” cartoon that also reads:

*RESTRICTIONS APPLY

(see skin color for details)

Knight’s work has appeared in the Washington Post, Salon.com, Ebony, ESPN the Magazine, MAD Magazine and the San Francisco Chronicle.
