In a conversation with The Wire’s editor, Seema Chishti, Joe Sacco discussed his craft, his art, his experiences, the travesty of what is unfolding in Palestine, the significance of his books and the reason why dressing up journalism as ‘both-sideism’ or ‘balance’ does not work and harms the pursuit of the truth. The Wire’s founding editor, Siddharth Varadarajan spoke about the sequence that unfolded as The Wire tried to organise a fundraiser for the children of Gaza. Apoorvanand did the welcome and gave the vote of thanks to Sacco. Teaching Fellow at Ashoka University, Vighnesh Hampapura, elaborated on Sacco’s work before Joe Sacco and Seema Chishti took to the stage.
