The 2015 Charlie Hebdo Terrorist Attack, while a tragic historical event, sparked a global movement centered around the slogan 'Je suis Charlie' (I am Charlie). Originating as a sign of solidarity for the victims of the attack on the French satirical magazine, the phrase quickly went viral across social media platforms. It became a powerful symbol for freedom of speech and the press, often depicted in stark black-and-white graphics. In digital culture, it is used to discuss the boundaries of satire and the importance of journalistic integrity, representing one of the first major instances of a hashtag/slogan becoming a global symbol of political and social defiance.
