This past Friday, author Salman Rushdie was stabbed repeatedly during a lecture in New York. Known for his controversial 1988 novel The Satanic Verses, Rushdie has been the target of death threats for many years now—including a fatwa imposed by the former head of Iran in 1989. While Rushdie has now been taken off his ventilator and is reportedly heading towards a road of recovery, the attack has garnered other creatives to speak out about the threats made upon them.
